I have a kit that has great shells and edges but awful hardware, and im a heavy hitter and like my toms tuned quite high. so there always detuning during gigs and practices. and its a nightmare having to quickly tune in-between songs. so i tried different hoops but nothing worked so i thought id give them a go and they do the job perfectly. never need to worry again. i do wish they would do them in bigger packs however.

I have a ludwig supralite and I play rimshots almost always. It was getting so detuned that i even lost a tension rod during a concert. Tried these small guys and it was the first time in a while that i finished a whole set without having to adjust the tuning. Very satisfied.

A simple tool for keeping the snare in tune
NikMartken 13.08.2018
There are many ways to prevent the screws from moving on your snare, but I found these Gibraltar Lug Locks the simple and impactless system for doing it: just put it on the tension rods and place the flat corner against the hoop and you are ready to go.
They do work well especially for rimshots when the rods close to the impact area could unscrew.

They help out
FilipH 17.12.2017
These are slightly easier to install than similar products from different manufacturers, but sometimes they don't stick to certain screws. However, they do slow down the detuning process and the simplicity of application and the small size make them interesting enough to try out.

Great product
Vihren Hristov 30.10.2024
I use rimshots all the time, so lug locks are a must top and bottom. And these ones are the cheapest on the market. Hold the tension really well. The plastic is soft enough so that can be used multiple times. Altough the sharp edges of the sqare head on the steinles steel tension rods cut deep in the plastic. But I still use Lug Locks I bought 2009-2010, which has been switched between multiple snares. So it's a pretty good product.

It's Gibraltar. What can I say more?
Moonlet 14.12.2018
I don't usually go out of tune with my snare, but it's good to know it is now almost impossible with those Lug Locks.

Decent, irregular sizes
Anonymous 25.03.2015
Some of them came off the lugs right away, because they were slightly too big to fit, while others worked out fine. I don't know, they're cheap and can do the job if you're lucky, but I personally want more consistency.

Too small!
Anonymous 12.04.2016
I'm afraid that these little things were too small, they didn't fit my lugs well to be honest and the only way I could get them to work in any way was by jamming one in the rim and locking the one on the lug in the hole of the other. Not good at all for Gibraltar who are generally very good.

Simple but effective

they're just plastic rectangles with holes in them but they do seem to help drums stay in tune longer
