Drum Clamps & Mounting Hardware - Buyer's Guide

Drum clamps and mounting hardware are one of the most practical ways to expand your kit without adding more stands. Every additional stand takes up floor space, adds weight to your setup, and increases pack-down time. A clamp that mounts onto an existing tube or bass drum hoop achieves the same result in a fraction of the space - and at a fraction of the cost of a full stand.

The most versatile piece of mounting hardware is the multi clamp. A standard multi clamp grips onto any existing stand tube and provides one or more additional attachment points - for a cymbal arm, a tom holder, a cowbell mount, or any other accessory with a standard tube fitting. Gibraltar produce the widest range of multi clamp variants, from the standard single-attachment clamp through to the Super and All-Purpose models with multiple attachment points and greater adjustability. Tama, Mapex, Yamaha, Sonor, and Meinl all produce their own multi clamp options with slightly different specifications and attachment mechanisms.

Tom holders and arms are the other essential category. If you want to add a tom to your kit without a dedicated tom stand, a tom arm that clamps onto your bass drum hoop or an existing stand tube is the most space-efficient solution. Yamaha's YESS system, Ludwig's Atlas series, and Gretsch's own tom holders are all well-regarded options with different mounting approaches and compatibility considerations.

Cymbal boom arms with clamps are the most practical way to add a cymbal position to a crowded kit - particularly useful for adding a second crash, a china, or a stack without a full boom stand. Ludwig's Atlas Scissor Arms are particularly well regarded for their adjustability and stability.

Frequently Asked Questions

A drum multi clamp grips onto an existing stand tube and provides one or more additional attachment points for cymbals, toms, cowbells, or other accessories. They allow you to add extra positions to your kit without additional stands, saving floor space and reducing setup time. Most multi clamps accept standard tube diameters and are compatible with hardware from any manufacturer.
A multi clamp is a mounting point that grips onto an existing tube and provides an attachment for a separate arm or accessory. A cymbal boom arm with clamp combines the clamp and the arm in a single unit - you clamp it onto an existing stand tube and the arm extends to position a cymbal. Boom arms with clamps are the most direct solution for adding a cymbal position; multi clamps are more versatile as they can accept different types of arms and accessories.
An x-hat clamp allows you to add a second hi-hat to your kit without a full hi-hat stand. The clamp mounts onto an existing stand tube and holds a hi-hat arm that can be operated by hand or foot. X-hats are popular for adding a left-side hi-hat to a standard kit configuration, or for adding a remote hi-hat position in a more complex setup.
Most multi clamps are designed to accept standard tube diameters (typically 22-25mm) and are compatible with hardware from any manufacturer. The key specification to check is the tube diameter of the stand you're clamping onto and the tube diameter of the arm or accessory you're attaching. If you're unsure, our team is happy to advise on compatibility before you purchase.
The Ludwig Atlas Scissor Arm is a cymbal attachment arm that uses a scissor-lift mechanism to adjust the height and angle of the cymbal independently of the stand. It clamps onto an existing stand tube and provides a highly adjustable cymbal position - particularly useful for adding cymbals in tight spaces or at unusual angles. Available in short and long versions.
