TEMPORARILY OUT OF STOCK- send a note via the "contact" form and you'll get first dibs when I machine the next batch!

Note: this part fits SLOTTED German-style tension rods, not square-headed standard rods like those used on Latos (and most manufacturers') drums.

Hand-machined, these are designed to speed head changes up significantly, and are made out of stainless steel, brass, copper for a lifetime of service.

These feature a 3/8" round shaft to reduce the risk of an unexpected jam of some sort damaging a lug, insert, or tension rod: in event of binding, the round shaft is more likely to spin in the drill's chuck than a hex shaft. Of course, always set your drill's clutch to its lowest setting for a little extra insurance.

These fit 1960s vintage through modern slotted rods, including:
Teardrop, Champion / Super Champion, Phonic, Lite, Signature, Designer, etc
