Ranat thum lek

The "ranat thum lek" ( _th. ระนาดทุ้มเหล็ก) is a metallophone used in the classical music of Thailand. It is the larger of the two sizes of Thai metallophone; the smaller one is called ranat ek lek.

The "ranat thum lek" consists of flat metal slabs placed over a rectangular wooden resonator. It is played with two bamboo sticks with padded ends.

The "ranat thum lek" is very similar to the Khmer "roneat thong".
