Silver Polishing Cloth
Removes fingerprints, tarnish, and everyday residue while helping preserve the finish of silver-plated and solid silver instruments.
Pad Saver Cloth
Absorbs excess moisture after playing to help prevent and resolve sticky pads while extending pad life without leaving behind lint or residue.
Double-Ended Duster Brush
Cotton Swabs
Perfect for cleaning small, hard-to-reach areas around keys, mechanisms, and the embouchure hole, and for removing excess key oil after lubrication.
Pipe Cleaners
Clean between keys and other narrow spaces while removing dust and debris from pads and mechanisms, including delicate pad surfaces when used gently.
Alcohol Wipes
Clean head joint and foot joint tenons to remove dirt, oils, and residue for smoother assembly, and help remove excess key oil after lubrication.
Professional Quality SuperSlick® Key Oil
Lubricates pivot points and key mechanisms to reduce friction and unwanted mechanical noise. The precision needle-tip applicator delivers oil exactly where it’s needed.
Cork Grease
Lubricates cork joints for smoother assembly while reducing wear. For cork joints only—never use on metal tenons.
Mini Screwdriver / Spring Hook
For Flute & Piccolo
Features a precision screwdriver to adjust screws that regulate the key mechanisms and a spring hook for re-hooking springs and making small spring tension adjustments.
Mini Screwdriver / Spring Hook
For Alto & Bass Flute
Features a precision screwdriver to adjust screws that regulate the key mechanisms and a spring hook for re-hooking springs and making small spring tension adjustments.
Feeler Gauge
Checks for pad leaks, uneven pad seating, and regulation changes that can affect your instrument’s response and tone.
Copper Tape
Provides a temporary solution for loose tenon fits and can also be used as a precision shim for certain mechanical adjustments.
Self-Adhesive Felt
Provides a temporary solution for worn or missing bumper felt or cork, restoring proper key contact while eliminating unwanted metal-to-metal contact.
Pencil
Ideal for marking copper tape and self-adhesive felt before cutting, and of course, every musician should always have a pencil close at hand.
Key Oil Pen Applicator
Clean, precise oil application to noisy or dry mechanisms.
Scissors
Cut copper tape, self-adhesive felt, and other repair materials for clean, precise application.
Plastic Tweezers
Safely handle felt, copper tape, cork, and other small repair materials without scratching your instrument’s finish.
