GibraltarSC-4C Tension Lugs 6-Pack 1-5/8"es
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Six-pack of 1-5/8" Gibraltar tension lugs. A repair and restoration part for drums with cracked, stripped or mismatched lugs.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Restoring an older kit with broken or missing lugs
- Replacing stripped lug threads that will not hold a rod
- Reshelling or building a drum from bare parts
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers who actually need tension rods or washers
- Shells whose existing lug holes sit at a different spacing
- Anyone wanting a full hoop, rod and lug hardware 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
6-pack
Enough for one side of a six-lug drum, or half of a ten- or twelve-lug drum. Count your shell's lugs first.
Detail 03
Tension lugs
These are the shell-mounted receivers the tension rods thread into. Stripped lug threads, not the rods, are the usual cause of a drum that won't hold tune.
Detail 04
Sold as a bare part
This is the lug body itself. Mounting screws, gaskets, rods and washers are not part of the count.
Detail 05
$2.95 for six
Cheap enough to replace a whole drum's worth rather than chasing one bad lug, which also keeps the look consistent.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your existing lug hole spacing before ordering — mismatched spacing means new holes
- 02Mounting screws, gaskets and tension rods are separate
- 03Mixing new and old lugs on one drum can look uneven
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How many do I need for one drum?
Count the lugs on your shell. A six-lug snare takes six; an eight- or ten-lug drum needs two packs. Order by shell, not by pack.
02What does the 1-5/8" measurement refer to?
The lug body length, which determines the distance between its two mounting holes. That spacing must match the holes already drilled in your shell.
03Are tension rods included?
No. These are the lugs that mount to the shell. The rods that thread through the hoop into them are a separate purchase.
04Will these fit a non-Gibraltar drum?
Only if the mounting hole spacing lines up. Lug hole patterns vary between manufacturers, so measure your shell before assuming a fit.
