Strong match

Who this is for

  • Replacing a bent or lost L-rod on a tom holder
  • Reaching a tom position a shorter rod cannot cover
  • Mounting an accessory off a 12mm-compatible clamp or holder

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Hardware built around 9.5mm or 10.5mm rods
  • Drummers needing a ball-and-socket style mount
  • Anyone who needs the tom bracket itself, not the rod

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 01

12mm diameter

Must match your holder's receiver bore. A 12mm rod will not seat in smaller-diameter tom mounts.

Detail 02

L-rod shape

The right-angle bend sets tom angle by rotation. Position is adjusted by how far you insert and rotate, not by a joint.

Detail 03

Large size

Longer legs than a standard L-rod, so toms can sit further out or higher from the mounting point.

Detail 04

Rod only

Slides into an existing holder or clamp. The bracket, memory lock, and mounting hardware are separate pieces.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Confirm your tom holder accepts 12mm — smaller-diameter receivers will not work
  2. 02Memory lock is not part of the rod; add one to keep tom height repeatable
  3. 03Longer rod adds leverage, which can loosen a marginal tom mount

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01How do I know if my hardware is 12mm?

Measure the diameter of your current rod, or check the receiver bore on the tom holder. 12mm is a heavier-duty size than common 9.5mm and 10.5mm rods.

02Does this work with any brand of tom holder?

Fitment is by diameter, not badge. Any holder with a 12mm receiver should accept it, though the bend length may change your tom's reach.

03Is a memory lock included?

No. Add one separately if you want to reset the same tom height after every teardown.

04Will this fit a cymbal arm clamp?

If the clamp takes a 12mm rod, yes. Many accessory clamps are sized for smaller rods, so check the opening first.
