Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Hinged memory lock for 12.7mm (1/2 in.) drum hardware tubing. Marks a set height so stands and mounts return to the same position after teardown.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Drummers tearing down and resetting a kit at every gig
  • Locking cymbal or tom arm height so it repeats exactly
  • Replacing a lost or stripped lock on existing hardware

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Hardware with tubing thicker or thinner than 12.7mm
  • Drummers with a kit that never moves and never needs re-set
  • Anyone expecting it to add load capacity to a weak stand

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Gibraltar Hinged Memory Lock 12.7 mm 3/4 in. construction detail

Detail 01

12.7mm / 1/2 in. size

Sized to one tube diameter. Measure your stand's tube before ordering — a near-miss will not clamp.

Detail 02

Hinged design

Opens to fit around tubing already in place, so you skip disassembling the stand to slide it on.

Detail 03

Acts as a stop, not a clamp

It sets where a section rests when lowered; the stand's own wing nut still carries the holding load.

Detail 04

Sold as hardware, not per kit

One lock covers one joint. A full kit reset usually needs several.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure your tubing — drum hardware also comes in 19mm, 22mm and other diameters
  2. 02Single piece; setting a whole kit takes one per adjustment point
  3. 03Overtightening on thin tubing can dent it — snug is enough

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01What size tubing does this fit?

12.7mm, which is 1/2 inch. It will not hold on larger or smaller tubes, so measure the section you plan to mark.

02Do I have to take my stand apart to install it?

No. The hinge opens so you can wrap it around tubing that is already assembled, then close and tighten it in place.

03Does it hold the weight of the stand?

No. It marks a return height. The stand's existing wing nut or clamp still does the actual holding.

04Will one lock set up my whole kit?

No. Each adjustment point you want to repeat needs its own lock, so count your joints before ordering.
