ASW - NAB Metal Hub Adaptor Black (Trident Twist Lock)- NAB-BLK-TL

The NAB Metal Hub Adapter is designed for NAB-style reels and is compatible with most 1/4” tape machines that use trident twist-lock spindles. Its precision-machined aluminium body and trident twist-lock compatibility help ensure smooth, excellent centering and wobble-free operation on most 1/4” tape machines, including Studer, Otari, Tascam, and Revox decks.


Built for serious tape users, this adapter features a refined trident design, three ball plungers at 120 degrees apart on hub ensure consistent reel centering, and an added O-ring to help protect the reel surface from scratches. The upper part is screwed onto the bottom base, allowing the use of non-standard thicker reels. With no plastic parts and improved thread quality for easy mounting and removal, it delivers the longevity, strength, stability, and precision expected in professional reel-to-reel use.


This is a rugged, no-compromise solution for studio, archive, and restoration work with no deteriorating injection moulded plastic parts!

PS: The price listed is for a single piece of NAB adaptor. You may need to order a pair for using it on Supply and Take-up reel of your RTR machine.
