Quick-release cymbal toppers for 8mm threads, enabling fast setup and teardown with secure metal jaws.

The Dixon PAWN-IVEZ-2 Quick Release Cymbal Topper (2 Pcs) is a game-changer for drummers who value speed and reliability in their setup. Part of Dixon’s Inventor Series, these toppers replace traditional wing nuts on cymbal stands with 8mm threads, featuring a side button that opens and closes internal metal jaws for a secure grip on the tilter. Designed for stands with at least 15mm (0.6") of accessible thread, they ensure quick cymbal mounting and removal without sacrificing stability.

The durable Delrin stem protects cymbal center holes, and the chrome-plated steel construction guarantees long-lasting performance. Ideal for gigging drummers or shared studio kits, the PAWN-IVEZ-2 reduces setup time while maintaining a firm hold, though it’s best suited for lighter playing styles like jazz due to some user feedback on grip strength for heavy hitting.
