SaxCork Pro Replacement Kit for Soprano Alto Tenor – Model 056

Description

Product Overview

The SaxCork Pro Replacement Kit is designed for saxophonists who need a reliable, high‑quality cork solution for soprano, alto and tenor instruments. Each kit includes precisely cut cork pieces sourced from a perennial tree in Portugal, a water‑based glue, a fine‑toothed knife, sandpaper, cork paste and two extra cork blanks for future adjustments. The cork material combines elasticity with strong compression resistance, ensuring a tight seal that reduces air leaks and unwanted noise. Dimensions are tailored to each saxophone size: soprano (1.96 x 1.26 x 0.063 in), alto (2.36 x 1.57 x 0.063 in) and tenor (2.44 x 1.65 x 0.063 in). The kit weighs just 2.08 ounces and fits comfortably in a small carrying case.

Usage

This kit is ideal for both routine maintenance and emergency repairs. Whether you are a student preparing for a recital, a gigging professional, or a hobbyist restoring a vintage saxophone, the kit provides everything needed to replace worn cork quickly. Soak the new cork in water for five minutes, trim to the exact size, apply glue evenly, let it set for three minutes, then secure with the provided tie for 24 hours before playing. The process works in rehearsal rooms, at home, or on tour, delivering consistent performance wherever you play.
