TungSteel - the alternative to lead

TungSteel is a non-toxic, non-corrosive, reusable, sustainable and environmentally friendly material, for accurate and long-lasting piano action balancing.

There is no need to buy any special equipment when switching from lead to TungSteel. The weights are easy to fit. They do not need cutting or swaging, and there is no concern about lead exposure in the workshop.

The key weighting range covers from 3 to 15 grams.
The hammer range offers weights from 0.1 to 2 grams.

The name TungSteel was born in 2022 when New Zealand piano technicians started experimenting with tungsten and steel when looking for a suitable lead alternative.

While our range of stainless steel plugs is wide and affordable, the more expensive tungsten plugs are heavy and dense: e.g. the 20 grams weight fits in a small 12mm hole (limited avail. special order only). The TungSteel range offers new possibilities for Dynamic Touch Weight and Precision Touch Design (PTD).
