Glockenspiels
Endurance
The most durable field frame for the world’s best front ensemble instruments.
The Adams Endurance Series brings Adams’ world-renowned sound quality to the front ensemble, combining high-end concert-level tone with the most durable frame in its class. Built on direct feedback from marching professionals, this new design delivers extreme stability, effortless mobility, and weather-resistant reliability. Every component was engineered to perform flawlessly under real-world conditions. Strong, refined, and ready for any terrain. Adams Endurance Series Glockenspiels are designed for maximum strength and durability, allowing for easy transport across any field or concert stage. Featuring solid steel accessory rails, large rubber field wheels, and precision height adjustability, Endurance Glockenspiels provide the bottom end for any ensemble while standing up to years of hard playing, weather, and loading.
Adams has designed the Endurance Series Glockenspiels with the same bars as the Concert & Artist Series, but with the materials and finishes needed by today's ensembles. Through years of deep research and development, Adams has matched the bar specifications of early 20th-century American "Round-Top Parsifal Bells" with modern design and innovation. Endurance Series Glockenspiels are available in 3.3 octave configurations, with or without damper system.

Construction & Design
Re-engineered from the ground up, Endurance Series Glockenspiels are built to withstand any terrain. Featuring a square 1.5" heavy-duty tube frame construction, multiple bolted connection points for maximum rigidity and resonance control, and side panels made from heavy-duty aluminum to reduce weight while maintaining structural strength. The connection rod, accessory bar, and player’s side support bars are made of ultra-sturdy steel, ensuring zero flex or sag, even under heavy use. Endurance is finished in an all-black, weather-resistant powder-coat for lasting protection and understated bold elegance.
No Wing Nuts
Built on multiple bolted connections, every Endurance Series frame offers unmatched rigidity and strength without the need for extra wing nuts. No rattling, no flex, and no loss of resonance. In addition, the oversized 8" precision wheels are built with a reliable locking system, and aluminum side bumpers provide not only protection but also additional lateral stability.
Height Adjustment
The Endurance Series utilizes a precision gear-driven height adjustment system with a casted measurement scale for effortless adjustment. The removable heavy-duty accessory and player’s side support bar provides easy transport and maneuverability in tight spaces.
Pedal, In Motion
The Endurance Series Glockenspiel features a full-rotation, adjustable swivel pedal fit for any musical situation in any terrain.
