For a touring drummer or drum tech, the hardware bag is often the most dreaded item on the load-out. It’s heavy, awkward, and prone to breaking zips and handles. At Nomad, we’ve engineered a professional alternative: the Drum Hardware Coffin.
Designed to accommodate the full "shell-pack" footprint—including heavy-duty cymbal stands, hi-hat stands, thrones, and kick pedals—our coffins provide a rigid, secure, and mobile home for the "heavy lifting" side of the kit. Stop struggling with over-stuffed soft bags and upgrade to a Leicestershire-built solution that's designed to survive the tour.
Engineered for the "Set-and-Forget" Load-In
A Nomad Hardware Coffin is designed to be the first thing off the truck and the last thing on, providing a stable workstation for the drum tech.
1. Elongated "Low-Profile" Design
We understand that drum hardware is long but doesn't always need deep volume. Our coffins are built with a "low-profile" architecture, making it easy to see every stand at a glance without having to dig through layers of chrome.
-
Best for: Full touring hardware sets including extended hi-hat and cymbal booms.
2. Reinforced "Anti-Sag" Flooring
Drum hardware is notoriously dense. A standard case base can bow under the weight of three or four double-braced stands. We use a reinforced, high-thickness base plate and heavy-duty corner bracing to ensure the coffin maintains its structural integrity, even when fully loaded.
3. Pedal & Throne Compartments
Optional internal dividers allow you to create a "safe zone" for delicate kick pedals and drum thrones. This prevents heavy stands from sliding into your pedals and damaging tension springs or beaters during transit.
"Tour-Ready" Features for Every Stage
-
Lite Guard™ HDPE Construction: Drum hardware is heavy enough as it is. By choosing our Lite Guard™ HDPE shell, you get the same impact resistance as timber but with a significant weight reduction, making it much easier to handle on stairs or loading ramps.
-
Skid Rails & Corner Casters: Designed for easy "tip-and-roll" movement. Our coffins feature heavy-duty industrial casters and protective skid rails on the base, allowing you to slide the case into a van or trailer without damaging the shell.
-
Recessed "Comfort-Grip" Handles: Positioned at each end for a two-person lift, our handles are deeply recessed to prevent them from catching on other gear in a tight truck pack.
-
Leicestershire Craftsmanship: Every drum coffin is hand-assembled in our UK facility, ensuring it can handle the relentless "slam" and tumble of professional touring.
Why Choose a Nomad Drum Coffin?
-
Truck-Pack Logic: Built to standard trailer increments, ensuring your drum kit takes up no more space than it absolutely needs.
-
Non-Absorbent Linings: Unlike fabric bags that hold moisture and smell over time, our coffins are easy to wipe down and won't hold dampness from outdoor festival shows.
-
Custom Branding: Get your band or production company logo CNC-engraved directly into the shell for instant identification and professional "Backstage" presence.
