Detail 01
8 mm thread
The common cymbal stand size, but not universal. 6 mm threads on some stands will not accept these.

GibraltarForged Wing Nuts (2 Pack) 8 mm
Sale
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Two 8 mm forged wing nuts — the fasteners that hold cymbals, hi-hat clutches, and hardware joints. Replacement parts for a drummer's spares box.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing wing nuts lost at load-out
- Keeping spares in a stick bag for gigs
- Restoring older hardware with worn or missing fasteners
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone with 6 mm threads — the size will not engage
- Players wanting quick-release cymbal fasteners instead
- Someone needing a full cymbal felt and sleeve set
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
Forged
Formed under pressure rather than cast, so the wings resist bending when overtightened.
Detail 03
2-pack
Covers two stands, or one plus a spare. A full kit usually needs more.
Detail 04
$4.95
Cheap enough to buy several packs at once, which is the point with parts that vanish at load-out.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check your stand thread size — 8 mm here, some stands use 6 mm
- 02No felts, sleeves, or washers included, just the nuts
- 03Two per pack; count your cymbal stands before ordering one
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How do I know if I need 8 mm or 6 mm?
Most full-size cymbal stands use 8 mm; some lightweight or older stands use 6 mm. Compare against a nut you already have, or measure the threaded rod.
02How many do I get?
Two per pack. One cymbal stand uses one wing nut, so a pack covers two stands.
03Does this include the felts?
No. Felts, sleeves, and washers are separate. This is the wing nuts only.
04Will these fit non-Gibraltar stands?
Yes, if the thread is 8 mm. Wing nuts fit by thread size rather than brand, so they work across most hardware using that size.
