The 3-pack of black Jam Nut Microphone Stand Locking Nuts from Latch Lake are oversized locking nuts with a 5/8" thread that allow you to adjust where the mic thread ends on a mic stand. This allows for precise positioning of your microphone.

All whining aside, THESE DO THE JOB. The stock items on most mic stands DON’T and simply pale in comparison. Due to thickness and diameter, these can be gripped and tightened / loosened by hand much more effectively than the “lesser” substitutes. I have tooled up to replace almost all of my stock mic stand jam nuts with these. At first, it hurt the wallet a bit. Now, that cost has been more than paid in increased serenity. Along the way, I developed an axiom: “Friends don’t let friends use $#!++y mic stands”. I’ve amended that to include $#!++y jam nuts.
Tired of wimpy little jam nuts that barely hold the mic in position and are so tiny you can barely grasp them, or ones so cheaply stamped out of sheet metal they leave burrs in your fingers? This is the answer. Big enough to really do the job, and make the job easier to do. Not so big they get in the way.
