GibraltarTama-Style Wing Nut Sleeve 6mm SC-TCWN
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 6mm wing nut sleeve for Tama-style drum hardware. Replacement part for drummers who lost or stripped the original sleeve on a stand or holder.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a stripped or missing 6mm wing nut sleeve
- Keeping a spare in the hardware bag for gigs
- Restoring an older Tama-style stand to working order
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Hardware using anything other than a 6mm thread
- Drummers who need the full wing nut, not just the sleeve
- Anyone wanting a hardware upgrade rather than a repair part
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
Tama-style fitment
Designed around Tama hardware dimensions. Other brands may use different thread pitch or sleeve depth.
Detail 03
Sleeve, not a full wing nut
This is the threaded insert portion. If the wing itself is cracked, you need a different part.
Detail 04
Aftermarket Gibraltar part
Gibraltar makes replacement parts across brands, so fitment is by dimension rather than by badge.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your hardware is 6mm, not 8mm — they are not interchangeable
- 02Sold as a part, not a set; buy multiples if replacing several
- 03Check whether the wing nut body is also damaged before ordering just the sleeve
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my Pearl or DW stand?
It is built to Tama-style dimensions. It may fit other brands with the same 6mm thread, but check your existing part against the size before ordering.
02Does this include the wing nut?
This is the sleeve component. If your wing nut itself is broken, you will need that piece separately.
03How do I know if I need 6mm or 8mm?
Measure the threaded rod diameter on your stand or holder. Larger tom holders and boom arms often use 8mm; smaller fittings typically use 6mm.
04Is one enough?
One sleeve covers one fitting. If more than one spot on your kit is worn, order the matching quantity.
