Gibraltar SC-GPHP-5W 5" White Bass Drum Port Hole Protector (GI851356)
Safe and secure checkout
If you’ve cut a port hole into your bass drum resonant head, it’s worth protecting it properly. The Gibraltar SC-GPHP-5W is a simple 5" white port hole protector designed to reinforce the cut edge of a bass drum head, helping to prevent tearing, fraying and damage over time.
It gives the port hole a cleaner, finished look while adding useful protection for drummers who regularly place a microphone inside the bass drum or adjust internal dampening.
Why Use a Bass Drum Port Hole Protector?
A ported bass drum head is useful for live sound, recording and quick mic placement, but the cut edge of the head can become a weak point. Over time, that hole can start to split or look untidy, especially if the drum is used regularly for gigs, rehearsals, school use or hire setups.
This Gibraltar protector helps reinforce the opening so the head lasts longer and looks neater.
Who Is It For?
This is a practical accessory for:
- Drummers using a ported bass drum resonant head
- Live sound setups where a bass drum mic is placed inside the drum
- Studio and rehearsal room kits
- School, venue and hire drum kits
- Players who want a cleaner finish around the bass drum port hole
It’s not a flashy upgrade, but it is the sort of small part that can help stop a bigger problem later.

Not Sure If This Is the Right One?
This version is designed for a 5" bass drum port hole. If your bass drum head has a different size opening, you’ll need to match the protector to the port size.
Measure across the hole at its widest point before fitting. If you’re unsure which size you need, get in touch and we’ll help you check before ordering.
