The Universal Plate has pre-stamped hole patterns for most of the current hardware used by the major drum companies such as Tama, Gretsch, DW, Ludwig, Pearl, Yamaha, etc. GPI can also modify this plate to fit older hardware that may have been discontinued.

The Half Plate is designed to fit "L" arm style hardware such as Gibralter, DW, Ludwig, Tama, etc. It will adapt to any "L" arm mounts that use the standard 2 vertical bolts with the dimensions of the bolts at 2" to 2.5" (50.8mm-63.5mm) apart.

Major Drum Companies and RIMS®
Below is a list of the major drum brands and their mounting compatibility with RIMS®. Most hardware fits one of our side plates without any issue, but if you have a make/model of hardware that requires us to modify our mounting plate, you can add the modification to your order here. Most modifications are free. Adding a modification to you shopping cart is a simple way to let us know to include it with your order. If you are ordering multiple RIMS® mounts, order as many modifications as required for your order. Feel free to contact us with any questions.

Mapex:
Mapex is constantly making small changes to their hardware and mixing the hardware with different drum sets and mounting systems. The designation of the drum set does not always match the name of the hardware. If you order a Mapex modification for your Saturn, Meridian, Mydenity, or Voyagers drums we will contact you with an email so we can help determine the correct modification for your hardware. Regardless of which Mapex model you have, you will want to choose the 'Half Plate' option when purchasing. RIMS® works extremely well at opening up the resonance of these drums.

RIMS® works great with Yamaha hardware and no modifications are necessary. Order the 'Universal Plate' option when purchasing.
