Detail 01
Straight, not boom
The cymbal sits directly over the tripod base. Simple and stable, but no reach over toms or other stands.

DW5710 Heavy-Duty Straight Cymbal Stand
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A heavy-duty straight cymbal stand from DW's 5000 hardware line. For drummers who need a stand that holds position under hard playing.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Gigging drummers loading in and out several nights a week
- Holding heavy ride cymbals that sag on lighter stands
- Players who hit hard and knock lighter hardware out of position
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers hauling gear on foot who need light hardware
- Anyone needing a boom arm to reach over a rack tom
- Small setups where a straight stand can't get the angle you want
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Heavy-duty build
Thicker tubing and beefier joints than a single-braced stand. More weight in the case, less creep during a set.
Detail 03
5000 series hardware
DW's working-drummer tier — built for repeated load-in rather than studio-only or lightweight touring use.
Detail 04
Tripod base
Legs take up floor space. In a tight kit you may need to interleave legs with adjacent stands.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Cymbal felts, sleeve and wing nut mount the cymbal — check what arrives before the gig
- 02A straight stand adds weight to your hardware bag compared to a lightweight model
- 03Measure your kit spacing — tripod legs on a heavy stand need real floor room
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can this hold a 22-inch ride?
Yes. Heavy-duty tubing and a wide tripod base are built for the weight and leverage of a large ride.
02Is this a boom stand?
No, it's a straight stand. The cymbal sits above the base, so you position it by moving the whole stand.
03Will it work with cymbals from other brands?
Yes. The threaded cymbal rod is a standard drum-hardware fitting and takes any cymbal with a normal center hole.
04Is this overkill for a practice kit?
For home use a lighter stand does the job. Buy this if you gig, hit hard, or hang heavy cymbals on it.
