This 1960s Slingerland Tempo King Foot Plate is an authentic piece of vintage American drum hardware, perfect for restoring a Tempo King No. 938 pedal or completing a period‑correct Slingerland setup. Known for its lightweight feel, classic ribbed traction pattern, and smooth response, the Tempo King footboard remains one of the most recognizable designs from Slingerland’s golden era.
