DW have reengineered the pedal that established our reputation for innovation and quality. Innovation is part of DW's DNA, and they thought it was time for some major improvements.

The 5000 needed more gripping strength, providing a stronger connection between the drummer and kick drum. So, DW developed the Tri-Pivot™ Toe Clamp: Three independent 360 degrees, rotating rubber pads firmly pinch almost any diameter and thickness bass drum counter hoop from the top and the bottom, with zero slippage. Add to that a new textured rubber grip pad on the base plate and we think you'll agree that there's never been a better system for attaching a pedal to a bass drum.

Last, but certainly not least, DW wanted to improve on the smoothness and feel of the 5000, if that was even possible. To accomplish this, they added a Dual Bearing Spring Rocker, making the 5000 quicker and more responsive.

Featuring a host of refinements and upgrades, the legendary line of 5000 Series bass drum pedals still features a choice of drive systems, aluminium hex shafts, pedal plates and linkages, 101 two-way beater, and built in spurs. These pedals can be customized to fit the needs of any player.

Features

• The Accelerator™ (AD4) drive system offers an eccentric motion that creates an indirect relationship between the sprocket and the footboard, increasing the velocity of the pedal by shortening the length of the stroke. It is recommended for situations that require increased speed and sensitivity.

• DW's patented Delta Ball-Bearing Hinge is a state-of-the-art lightweight aluminium design that incorporates ball bearings at both sides.

• The AD4 pedals feature a Dual-Bearing Spring Rocker delivering ultimate smoothness.

• The New Tri-Pivot™ Toe Clamp ensures the pedal and drum stay connected no matter what hoop size or angle. Convenient Clip with Drum Key also included.

• DW's unique Universal Assembly (with memory lock) is made of aircraft grade aluminium, precision ground, heat treated and honed.

• The Non-Skid Rubber Grip will keep your pedal planted while being easily adjustable.
