New Gibraltar Turning Point Series Hardware

Gibraltar Turning Point Hardware Tested!

Introducing the new Turning Point Series from Gibraltar!!

Gibraltar’s Turning Point cymbal tripod base is made from chrome plated L-stock aluminum in a sleek arrow design. Gives the stability of double bracing but the weight of single braced stand.
Gibraltar’s patented Swing Nut auto cymbal tilter. Just press down on the spring loaded tilter turn the swing nut, mount the cymbal and felt and that’s it, no wing to lose and you saves you time.

The "swing nut" design is only part of some of the new innovations that the folks at Gibraltar have come up with.
 The centerpiece of the Turning Point hardware series is the Swing Nut cymbal tilter. Eliminating the threaded tops and wing nuts of conventional tilters, the Swing Nut utilizes a straight post, split vertically with a centered hinge. This allows part of the post to replace the wing nut, cutting out all that tedious turning when mounting and removing cymbals.  Read more at:
