Detail 01
Suspension system
The tom hangs off its lugs, so the shell vibrates freely instead of being clamped and damped.

GibraltarUniversal Tom Drum Suspension System
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A suspension mount that holds a tom by its lugs instead of a shell-mounted bracket, for drummers chasing more resonance from existing toms.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Drummers whose toms choke when mounted with a shell-through bracket
- Adding sustain to a budget kit without buying new drums
- Mixing toms of different brands onto one stand or rack
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers happy with the mount their kit already came with
- Anyone wanting a drop-in fix with no measuring or fitting
- Kits where the tom already floats on an isolation mount
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
Universal fit
Designed to adapt across common tom sizes and lug spacings rather than one specific kit.
Detail 03
Tom-specific
This is for rack toms. Snares and floor toms use different hardware and are not the target.
Detail 04
$29.99
Entry-level hardware pricing. Expect functional steel and plastic parts, not boutique fit and finish.
Detail 05
Mounting hardware, not a stand
It suspends the drum, but something else has to hold it up: a rack, cymbal stand, or tom arm.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your tom's lug spacing and diameter before ordering
- 02A stand or rack arm to mount it on is not included
- 03Universal fit still means test-fitting and adjusting, not bolt-and-play
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit any tom?
It is built as a universal system, so it covers common tom sizes and lug layouts. Unusual lug spacing or oversized shells can still be a problem, so measure first.
02Does it come with a stand?
No. It is the suspension mount only. You supply the rack, cymbal stand, or tom arm it attaches to.
03Will it actually make my toms sound different?
It removes contact between the shell and a rigid bracket, so toms ring longer and open up. The change is real but subtle on a well-tuned drum.
04Can I use it on a floor tom or snare?
It is intended for rack toms. Floor toms and snares mount differently and need their own hardware.
