PearlNP208 Hi-Hat Cup Washer
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Replacement cup washer for Pearl hi-hat stands. A small consumable part for drummers whose clutch or seat area has worn or lost its washer.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a lost washer after breaking down a kit repeatedly
- Restoring smooth hi-hat action on an older Pearl stand
- Keeping a spare in the stick bag for gig-night repairs
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers who need a full hi-hat clutch assembly
- Non-Pearl stands, where hardware dimensions may not match
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
Cup washer shape
Concave washer seats the felt and cymbal, keeping the hi-hat centered rather than sliding on the rod.
Detail 03
Hi-hat specific
Sized for hi-hat rod hardware, not cymbal stand tilters or tom mounts.
Detail 04
Sold as a small part
One replacement piece. Not a rebuild kit for the whole stand.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What does a cup washer actually do?
It seats under the cymbal and felt so the hi-hat stays centered on the rod and moves cleanly instead of shifting sideways.
02Does this include the felt?
No. This is the washer only. Felts are bought separately.
03Will it work on another brand's hi-hat stand?
It's made to Pearl's dimensions. Fit on other brands isn't guaranteed — compare against your existing washer first.
04Do I need tools to install it?
No. Loosen the clutch or wing nut, swap the washer, retighten.
