Problem w. Tension Bolt on Premier Tom

Posts: 241 Threads: 29

Hi,

One of the slotted Tension Bolts of my 13" Premier Tom can't be adjusted properly.

After a several Turns it does a 'Click' Sound and looses its tension.

A Premier collector told me that the Bolts would not be the original ones and sold me a Pack of the shorter <2" Version (5 cm). Those don't fit at all (too short).

Another 13" Premier Tom I have includes the longer Bolts and they work fine.

Is this perhaps a Thread- not a Bolt Problem?

Thanks for your answers!

Regards,

Lars

Does the effect come up with any other of the tension bolts, too?

Then look at ChristianB's post.

No, it appears only on that single bolt. So I guess a spare Swivel Nut is needed...

Thanks,

Lars
