DWTrue Pitch Tension Rods for 14-18" Toms (16-pack) 16 Pack
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For 14–18-inch toms, this 16-pack of stainless-steel DW True Pitch 50 tension rods is a tuning-focused hardware replacement or retrofit option. The 50-threads-per-inch design gives you a wider tuning range and a finer adjustment interval, making it easier to work through small tuning changes. DW describes the rods as ultra-smooth in use and designed for less back-out. They can retrofit a set that uses original-sized DW turret lugs.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing or retrofitting tension rods on 14–18-inch toms with original-sized DW turret lugs.
- Drummers who want finer adjustment increments while working through tom tuning changes.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drums that do not use original-sized DW turret lugs for the stated retrofit application.
