We carry famous 'Roslau' Piano Wire imported from Germany & 'Mapes' International Gold Wire made in the USA.

Piano wire is the "Blue Chip" of the steel industry. Because of its exacting requirements, only the finest grade steel of precise chemical analysis is used in its manufacture.
To help assure beauty of tone, it must be exceedingly uniform in thickness and roundness. Tolerances are held to .0003".
This wire is the finest you can buy. Available in polished finish only. Measured by American Standard Music Gauge.
