The HW3 Advanced Lightweight Hardware Pack offers gig-ready strength, ultra-light aluminum construction, and compact folding design — perfect for drummers on the go.

The Yamaha HW3 Advanced Lightweight Hardware Pack is purpose-built for drummers who prioritize portability, fast setup, and dependable stability. Whether you're gigging regularly, rehearsing often, or playing small stages, this hardware set is designed to cut down the weight without cutting corners.

Each stand in the HW3 set is made from aluminum tubing, giving you remarkable strength with a fraction of the weight of steel hardware. Channel-track legs with non-slip rubber feet offer solid support even on uneven surfaces, and offset folding design ensures a super-compact footprint for easy packing.

This 4-piece pack includes two cymbal stands, one snare stand, and one hi-hat stand — all equipped with durable gear tilters and quick-tightening wing bolts. Despite being incredibly light (just 7.8 kg total), these stands handle full-sized drums and cymbals with confidence.

Ideal for use with Yamaha’s Stage Custom Hip, compact kits, or any gigging setup where mobility matters.
