These 56 mm chrome-on-steel tension rods pass through the hoop to pull the drumhead down onto the shell, letting you tune each point of the head precisely. Tightening or loosening them with a drum key raises or lowers pitch at each lug, making them central to getting an even, musical drum sound. Manufactured from stainless steel with the industry-standard #12-24 (7/32 inch) thread, they fit most modern tom and snare hoops and lugs. The 56 mm thread length beneath the square head suits deeper tom shells and standard snare configurations. Sold as a set of 10 pieces, they are ideal for replacing bent or stripped rods, converting a kit to uniform hardware or stocking a drum tech's toolkit. Key Features: - Chrome-on-steel construction - Standard thread #12-24 (7/32 inch diameter) - Thread length below square head: 56 mm - Set of 10 pieces - Fits tom and snare drums - Tuned with a standard drum key
