Gibraltar SC-USS 2-Point Tom Suspension Mount

The Gibraltar SC-USS is a 2-point tom suspension mount designed to help mount rack toms without drilling extra holes into the shell.

It is made for drummers who want a cleaner suspension-style mounting option for toms, whether that is for a repair, upgrade, custom build or drum restoration. Instead of fitting a bracket directly through the shell, the SC-USS works with the drum’s tension rods, helping the tom stay mounted while allowing the shell to resonate more freely.

It is a useful Gibraltar spare part if you are trying to improve or replace the mounting system on a compatible rack tom.

What Is It Actually For?

This mount is designed to support tom drums using a suspension-style system.

It fits 8", 10", 12", 13" and 14" tom sizes, making it a flexible option for a wide range of rack toms. The moveable tension rod position helps you line the mount up with different drum sizes, while the drum key locks help secure the mount in place.

The rubber guard helps protect the drum from direct metal contact, which is important if you are fitting hardware to a shell you want to keep in good condition.

Why Use a Suspension Mount?

A suspension mount can help avoid putting unnecessary stress directly onto the drum shell.

On many older or basic tom mounts, the bracket is fixed directly into the shell. That can work fine, but it can also restrict resonance depending on the drum and mounting design. A suspension-style mount helps support the drum from the tension rod points instead, which can allow the shell to breathe a little more naturally.

It is also a useful option for custom projects where you do not want to drill into the drum shell.

Good Spare Part for Repairs and Custom Builds

The SC-USS is part of Gibraltar’s Service Centre hardware range, which covers replacement parts, mounting hardware and custom setup parts for a wide variety of drum applications.

It is useful if you are rebuilding a tom, replacing an old suspension mount, converting a tom to a different mounting setup, or putting together a custom drum kit.

As with all drum spare parts, the key thing is checking measurements and compatibility before fitting.

Compatibility Note

The Gibraltar SC-USS is listed as fitting 8", 10", 12", 13" and 14" toms.

Before ordering, check your drum size, lug spacing and the type of tom arm or bracket you intend to use with the mount. Drum shell designs and lug layouts can vary between brands, so it is worth checking carefully before fitting.

If you are unsure, send us the tom size and a clear photo of the current mount or lug layout and we will help check.

Who Is It For?

This is a useful part for drummers, repairers, schools, studios, builders and anyone working on acoustic drum hardware.

It is especially handy if you are repairing a tom, upgrading a mounting system, or putting together a cleaner suspension-style setup without drilling extra holes into the shell.

If you simply need a standard tom bracket or L-rod clamp, this may not be the right part. But if you need a 2-point tom suspension mount for a compatible tom, the SC-USS is a practical Gibraltar option.
