Key Features
The idea of replacing the traditional pull mechanism with a lever design was a genuinely revolutionary concept. The Iron Cobra version uses roller bearings at the lever fulcrum for even smoother footboard action while a super-strong Kevlar® strap connects the footboard and pull rod for even, noise-free action.

Footboard Angle Adjustment:
Like Iron Cobra pedals, footboard angles on Iron Cobra hi-hats can be adjusted. You can perfectly match the angle between the hi-hat footboard and the slave-side footboard of your double pedal.
Duo-Spike:
It'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.
Tilt System:
Not 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. Iron Cobra hi-hat stands can be tilted quickly and easily by loosening just one T-Bolt.
Non-Loosening Tension Rod:
Specially shaped plastic and metal nuts fit together perfectly to keep the cymbal rod from loosening while playing.
Spare-the-Rod Tension Rod Protector:
No 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.
Dual Legs:
Our two-leg design is not only easier to set up in limited spaces, it's actually more secure than the standard three-leg design. The secret is in the small stabilizer under the footboard which effectively shifts the balance and strength of the stand toward the player. Since there's no steel plate under the footboard, Iron Cobra hi-hats are foldable for quick set-up, fast tear down, and easy portability.
5-Way Tension Adjustment:
Five different levels of tension can be achieved quickly by using the five easily visible settings.
Quick-Set Tilter:
The toothless Quick-Set Tilter securely holds its position using the friction of six metal disc plates instead of traditional gears, so you can adjust it to any desired angle. This mechanism also has a more durable structure than a conventional gear tilter.
Reversible Bottom:
The cymbal bottom protects the cymbal's centre hole from the tilter's shaft and threads. If part of the nylon sleeve wears out, you can continue to use the cymbal bottom by turning it upside down.
Die-Cast Joint:
A die-cast joint combines the T-nut/bolt with a pressure plate with a Nylon Bushing. With this design, the removal and replacement of worn bolts or bushings is fast and easy.
Quick-Set Cymbal Mate:
By simply gripping and pressing the two buttons on the sides of the unit, users can attach and remove the Cymbal Mate with just one touch. This makes setting up cymbals a snap. Of course, as is the case with an ordinary Cymbal Mate, it's easy to make fine adjustments to cymbal swing by rotating the unit.
Nylon Washers:
By inserting nylon washers into the leg stand joints we have improved durability and made the leg action much smoother!
Boom / Straight Convertible Tilter:
Don't let limited stage space cramp your style! If there's no room for a boom, simply convert the stand to a straight stand. The boom arm stores neatly in the upper tube.
Noiseless Design:
Are cymbal stands just for supporting cymbals? We think cymbal stands are also musical instruments. All TAMA cymbal stands in the Roadpro and Stage Master lineups were designed with the elimination of stand noise a top priority. A special rubber cap at the end of the upper tube eliminates swaying and rattling, and a special nylon sleeve underneath the die-cast joint of the base section further reduces swaying.
Steel Insert Nut:
Placing a threaded steel insert nut inside the tripod base provides much more strength and makes stripping much less likely than with the traditional method of cutting the threads directly into the die-cast section.
TAMA's unique Hi-Low Base is a totally new design in snare drum stands. It allows much more flexibility in height adjustment - any snare from piccolo depth to 8" deep can be accommodated.
Snare Basket:
Unequally spaced basket arms eliminate contact between the arms and the snare strainer or the snare butt, whether the snare drum is 8 or 10 lug. An extra-large arm adjustment knob provides easy tightening and loosening.
Escape Claws:
TAMA's Escape Claws rubber cushions allow the snare drum to "float" on the basket arms for improved resonance. In addition, they help reduce fatigue by softening the impact of snare drum playing on your arms and wrists.
Nylon Washers:
By inserting nylon washers into the leg stand joints we have improved durability and made the leg action much smoother!
Swiveling Basket:
Asymmetrically spaced basket arms allow an 8 or 10 lug drum to be held without interference with its strainer, butt or lugs. Since the basket rotates independently from the stand, you can place the strainer in any position needed.
Omni-ball Tilter:
The use of TAMA's legendary Omni-ball system provides the same flexible yet stable angle settings found on TAMA tom stands.
