I recently baught a new set of hats - Sabian 13" AAX X-celerator hats - and have noticed that there is a significant gap between the edge of the cymbal and the hi hat clutch. Now can this cause key holing from the inpact of metal-on-metal? I would hate to see my new hats get wrecked like this!
Is there anything I can do to prevent such a thing, or is it a problem that doesnt exist?

thanks!

It wouldn't hurt to sleeve the clutch spindle with heat shrink, electrical tape or something similar for piece of mind regardless of whether it is a problem or not :o)

Some would say it can, some would say it's never caused them a problem. I would say that in 20 years of playing I've never had a problem. Take from that what you will.
