DW 9000 Drum Rack Leg Assembly
The 9000 rack leg assembly is the part that sets a drum rack structure on the floor. Pair it with a straight or curved bar from the system, and you get the support that was missing: where a span was getting too long, or where you want to extend the rack on one more side.
What sets it apart
- Leg assembly for the 9000 drum rack system
- Pairs with a straight or curved bar from the system
- Mounts on any 1.5 in rack tube
- Adds floor support where the load calls for it
- Extends an existing structure instead of replacing it
- Same ecosystem of clamps and memory locks
Where a support needs to go
A rack does not stand on its bars, it stands on what holds them up. As long as the structure stays small, the end supports are enough. As soon as a span gets longer or a wing runs toward the back, you need one more point — and it has to go in the right place.
The rule is simple: the support goes under the load, never in the middle for the sake of symmetry. Under the suspended drums, under the joint that carries the ride, under the spot where the bar visibly starts to give when you press on it by hand. A well-placed support does more than an extra one.
The diameter that decides everything
The whole 9000 system is built on a 1.5 in round tube, and this assembly mounts on it like everything else. Several rack manufacturers use this size, so a structure already in place can take this support even if it is a different brand.
The caveat works both ways: systems built on square or hexagonal tube will not work, because their clamps are designed for a different section. Check the diameter before you buy, not after.
Growing a rack one piece at a time
That is the whole point of a system sold in pieces: you change an existing structure without starting over. You add a support where a span was getting too long, or where you want to extend the rack to a new side.
The alternative — buying a larger complete rack — costs more and throws out gear that is still good. It is the modular approach at its most concrete.

Frequently asked questions
- What do I need to make it a complete support?
- This assembly and a bar from the system, straight or curved. DW presents it as a part to combine, not as a standalone leg.
- Will it mount on another brand's drum rack?
- On any 1.5 in round tube, yes. Square or hexagonal tube systems will not work.
- Where should the support go on a large rack?
- Under the load, not in the middle for symmetry: under the suspended drums or under the joint that carries the ride.
- Do I have to buy a complete new rack to make it bigger?
- No. You add a support and a bar, and the structure already set up stays in place.
