Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

A tom arm sized for 7/8 in. hardware — the rod that carries a rack tom on a stand, rack or bass drum bracket built for that diameter.

Product studyGibraltar Tom Arm 7/8 in.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Replacing a bent tom arm on 7/8 in. hardware
  • Building out a rack setup that uses 7/8 in. tubing
  • Repositioning a rack tom that the stock arm can't reach

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Kits whose tom brackets take a smaller rod diameter
  • Anyone needing the stand or bracket as well as the arm
  • Drummers looking to mount cymbals — this carries toms

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

7/8 in. diameter

The single number that decides fit. Your tom bracket and any receiving clamp must both be cut for 7/8 in.

Detail 02

Tom arm, not a full stand

It provides the rod and adjustment between the drum and whatever holds it. The support hardware is separate.

Detail 03

Heavier gauge rod

7/8 in. is a thicker standard than typical smaller arms, so it handles a loaded rack tom without flexing.

Detail 04

Adjustable positioning

Angle and height are set at the arm, so you can tilt a tom toward you without moving the whole stand.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure your existing rod with calipers — 7/8 in. will not fit smaller brackets
  2. 02Stand, rack tube and tom are not included
  3. 03Check your bracket's memory lock still seats on the new rod

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01How do I know if I need 7/8 in.?

Measure the rod your tom currently hangs on, or the hole in the bracket. If it's 7/8 in., this fits; other diameters will not.

02Does this include a stand?

No. It's the tom arm alone. You need a stand, rack tube or bass drum bracket that accepts a 7/8 in. rod.

03Can I use this for a floor tom?

It's built for hanging rack toms. Floor toms normally sit on legs or a dedicated floor tom mount instead.

04Will it work with my brand of drums?

It depends on the bracket, not the badge. Any tom whose mount accepts a 7/8 in. rod will work.
