The Tama Dyna-Sync Hi-Hat Stand features the same length footboard and dual linkage connection as the Dyna-Sync bass drum pedal, providing unparalleled feel with extreme accuracy. The newly developed Spring Damper aides in reducing the contact noise commonly caused by the abrupt release of the footboard. The footboard is equipped with the same unique footboard angle adjustment as the Dyna-Sync bass drum pedal, easily allowing for a customized and precise feel. Six different levels of tension can be achieved quickly by using the six easily visible settings.Quick-Set Hi-Hat ClutchWith just one touch, the Quick-Set Clutch can be attached or removed - simply push the button on the side of the clutch. The clutch also allows the top hi-hat cymbal to float more freely, maximizing the natural resonance of the cymbals. Specially shaped plastic and metal nuts fit together perfectly to keep the cymbal rod from loosening while playing.Tilt SystemNot only do Tilt equipped stands offer more flexible set-ups, they also offer more expressive hi-hat work because you can tilt the hi-hat cymbal. Dyna-Sync hi-hat stands can be tilted quickly and easily by loosening just one T-Bolt.Duo-SpikeIt's called a stand because it's not supposed to 'walk'-and our Duo-Spike makes sure your Iron Cobra hi-hat stands in one place. You can easily switch from rubber to metal by using a standard drum key.Spare-the-Rods Tension Rod ProtectorNo more tension rods getting bent out of shape during transport. With Spare-The-Rod, you can save your tension rod the rigors of the road by packing it in the specially designed upper section pipe. It's a small, but very significant Tama hardware innovation.Footboard Angle Adjustment Drummers have come to recognize and appreciate independent bass drum footboard angle adjustment as an important function to help customize a personal feel. This inspired us to focus on the Dyna-Sync design and create a completely new and unique footboard angle adjustment. The Dyna-Sync footboard angle design integrates into the clam-shaped connection point between linkage and footboard and is fully adjustable to deliver a totally personalized pedal angle adjustment.Hinge Guard BlockThe construction of the Bearing Hinge on the footplate from a one-piece assembly to two pieces, which holds the bearing more evenly minimizing stress, and maximizing smoothness, while adding to the pedal's sense of power.Oiles Bearing HingeOffering even less friction than the standard ball bearings, Oiles bearings also eliminate side-to-side motion and provide superior durability (which is why they're used in the aerospace industry).Glide-Tite Grip JointThe new Glide-Tite Grip Joint allows for a more secure attachment by using a metal-to-metal contact point. This provides an extremely solid anchor and complete isolation for a tom or cymbal. Because the stand does not move with the instrument, the natural resonance of that instrument is maximized.
