Key Pins
Rebuilders, at least those who really care as to how their pianos play, carefully and laboriously polish the key pins so as to reduce friction. There can be no doubt that this technique makes an action play better. But the time involved is lengthy and is only a temporary solution. The atmosphere around us will, in short order, corrode these highly polished key pins increasing their friction again.
Wouldn't it be nice if there were a way to achieve this reduced friction on the key pins in a simple and permanent way?
Introducing the Wessell, Nickel & Gross Low Friction Key Pins
We now have key pins made from aluminum so that we can get the benefit of hard anodization on the surface of the pins. Hard-Anodization is one method of producing a non stick cooking surface. When polished, these pins are even more slippery than the polished pins of old. As an added benefit, they will stay polished and slippery indefinitely. Unlike the past, the polish is permanent.
