Pearl Tom Holder Arm L-Rod Short

Compact short L-rod tom holder with Gyro-Lock tilter for precise, tour-grade positioning on 7/8" diameter stands.

The Pearl THL-1030S Short L-Rod Tom Holder Arm is a compact, tour-grade accessory designed for drummers needing precise tom positioning in tight setups. Part of Pearl’s 1030 Series, this short tom arm features a 12.7mm L-rod, a Gyro-Lock tilter for gearless multi-axis adjustment, and a moveable memory clamp for slip-free, repeatable setups. With a 7/8" (22.2mm) diameter post, 5" height, and 4" arm length, it’s ideal for mounting toms (8"–14" recommended) or small cymbals (up to 20") closer to the kit, enhancing playing comfort without sacrificing stability.

The Gyro-Lock system, with its interlocking cylindrical design and Compass Dial setting marks, offers infinite angle adjustments at four points (Up/Down, Left/Right, Side/Side, Forward/Aft) using a single drum key lock, outperforming traditional nylon ball-in-socket systems that wear out (web IDs 1, 11). Crafted from chrome-plated steel, the THL-1030S is compatible with Pearl’s OptiMount and ISS Suspension Systems and is praised for its rock-solid performance and smooth operation, making it perfect for gigging drummers, studio players, or kit customization (web IDs 3, 5, 17).
