The TAMA TTL10's octagonal hole fits perfectly on your tension rod head, locking it into place. It doesn't prevent you from tuning your drum, however, thanks to an elastic O-ring around its hole. Beyond that, this tension lock's offset hole allows it to fit a wide range of hoops. The TAMA TTL10 is an easy way to maintain your drumhead's tension while you play.

What’s So Great About Buying Drums from Sweetwater?


Octagonal hole for a perfect fit





The TAMA TTL10 features eight evenly placed protrusions around its hole, which makes it fit perfectly on a square rod head. Once locked into place, this tension lock keeps the rod from loosening, maintaining the tension of your drumhead. Beyond that, the hole's offset position allows the TTL10 to fit a wide range of hoops.





Elastic O-ring for easy tuning





The O-ring is built into the TAMA TTL10 effectively prevents your tension rod from loosening or rotating; however, its elasticity ensures that you can still tune your drum. Its pliability also prevents it from deforming ? even after multiple tunings.





TAMA crafts top-shelf drums for top-shelf drummers





TAMA builds their drums with a painstaking attention to detail, precision, and care in order to deliver the best drum tone possible. And countless touring drummers and session aces as diverse as Rush's Neil Peart and Metallica's Lars Ulrich (and quite a few here at Sweetwater), swear by them. Yet, in addition to crafting superb drums, TAMA is determined to innovate on the hardware front, as well. Their Iron Cobra Coil kick drum pedals are among the world's most popular, and you'll find that cymbals stands, snare stands, and drum thrones from TAMA are just as heavy-duty and reliable.
