Hi Hat Pedal Sensor Actuator With a Rubber Part For Roland FD8 TD11 TD15 TD17

I only write this for rubber part, as the remaining parts of my pedal were still functional, so I didnt change them. This product is amazing, and it has totally changed the way I play. I highly recommend it. A couple of important notes: - I had almost 0 experience with replacing something like this, I normally never open any of my devices, but it was super easy, just remove like 10 screws and thats it. - it works better if you put grease in the rubber part that touches the little wheel. Put grease in the wheel too. What kind of grease? I used one for cars, resistant to high temperatures, and it worked. - be careful when opening the pedal, as the cables within are super short and you could damage them (as long as they work of course, otherwise just rip it open haha) - do not buy a new pedal without trying this first. Theres a price difference of almost $150

funciono perfecto y encaja sin ningún problema

I've had my Roland FD-8 Pedal for over 10yrs and the rubber actuator dried out and became so stiff it would'nt flex anymore. This kit fix it!!! My FD-8 feel and works like brand new. If anyone has had problems I can guess that they didn't or couldn't clean away the self-adheasive gum from the old sensor. Even with a heatgun it's really difficult to remove the old sensor and the film of gum remained, I used naptha (mineral spirits and denatured alcohol didn't work). GooGone or WD-40 might work too, since they have a solvent in their recipe... no matter what it will be slow going getting all the gum off. For the kit to work the metal (base) plate must be perfectly clean. Lastly, I found it easier to remove the jack in order to disconnect/reconnect the membrane wire, just one nut and then gently slide the little collar back a tiny bit... piece of cake.

Works well

I’d stopped playing my Roland TD-1KV when the hi hat went out. I visited every music store in town and they had no answer. A year later it occurred to me to see if parts were on Amazon, and there it was. Easy fix, and I’ve been playing nearly every day since.

Good quality pedal for bass drum.

worked out of the box, all good

I’m a heavy hitter with both hands and feet, and have gone through two Roland hi hat pedals because of it. I thought I was going to need to buy another pedal, but this saved me from having to do that. Fairly easy install & it works like new!
