Welcome to Drum Chat, lomax512.
Your descriptions are a bit confusing. The Hi Hat is a stand that holds your top/bottom cymbals that aren't used for crashes and are much smaller than a ride cymbal.
A strainer/throw off is used on a snare drum.
Naff is not a part of my U.S. vocabulary.
For me, more description is needed as well as pictures to show what the problem is.
