“BOLT TIGHT” is an original product developed to not only prevent bolts from loosening but also cuts that undesirable metallic sound and brings the “deep and fat” sound out of your drums. We recommend mounting “BOLT TIGHT” on your snare drums as well as tom toms and bass drums.

Bolt Tight washers keep drums in tune and add that velvety tone to the sound.
Jimmy Macbride
I installed Bolt Tight washers on one of my drums and it improved the sound immensely while also making the drum easier to tune and help keep its tuning.
Chad Elrod / Seattle Drum School of Music / Recording Artist
Who wouldn’t want to add tone to their drum? They work! I’m hearing tones I didn’t think my drum could produce. More presence! And the fact that I don’t have to constantly retune to keep my drums where I want them is more than a small benefit!
Chris Brady (Brady Drums)
We use Canopus Bolt Tight on all our drums because they eliminate detentioning of the heads. Simple & highly effective.
Matt Starr
Bolt Tight has opened up my snare drum SO much, it was a big surprise. I can’t wait to try them on my toms!
Jess Birch (Steve Maxwell NY)
Bolt Tight is one of my favorite Canopus products. It adds depth Eliot Zigmund
aand tone to my drums. Tuning is smoother and more accurate. Its also a great upgrade for vintage drums.
