Re: [Simmons Drums] SDS 7 pad hardware

2008-05-17 by rolandbrenner@netzero.net

Hey Ed ( I assume ? ),
 
I was trying to find a source for those myself. I had in mind to replace a few old ones that have become slightly corroded. I would think they would call these T-Handle Nuts although I've found nothing after Googling. I'd love to also know if there's a source for these.
 
Worse case scenario, a coupler nut ( elongated nut ) from a good local hardware store might do the trick as long as the outer hex diameter doesn't interfere. Then you would just need a wrench or nut driver to tighten the pad to the pipe. I just bought some of those ( metric too ! ) for my little moped. 
 
The duct tape just isn't cutting it, Huh ? ; )
 
- Roland
 
Let me know if any of you out there can hook a brother up with a tensioning bolt (?) for a SDS 
7 pad. Perhaps that's not the correct term, but it's the chrome t-rod thingy that you use to 
tighten the pad on the stand - one of those. If you've got a spare, I'm in the market - name 
your price.
Thanks.
