I use mechanical advantage to make mounting skins on congas very easy. Most original stock lugs for congas are 6″. Our mounting lugs are made of high strength 3/8″ stainless steel. At 7″ long, they will reach up to the crown when mounting thick skins so you can get it pulled down onto the drum quickly and without a fight! Once the head is mounted and pulled down, you can easily switch the lugs out for the original tuning lugs that fit the drum. Includes high strength Zinc/Yellow Chromate coated 9/16″ nut, washer and rubber screw cover. High polished finish or matte finish available.
