A Classic Maintenance Product from Rico
Known in the world of wind instrument accessories, the Rico brand has established itself with simple and effective maintenance solutions. This cork grease is one of the essentials in a musician's kit: a quick step that improves playing comfort and extends the lifespan of corks.
Who Should Use It and When
This cork grease is intended for all instrumentalists playing on joints with cork tenons (areas covered with cork). Ideal for music schools as well as conservatories, it is suitable for rehearsals, orchestras, brass bands, and stage performances whenever an instrument needs to be frequently assembled and disassembled.
Sound and Design
Well-maintained cork improves the feel of the joint and helps preserve the mechanical seal of the connections. The result: fewer jerks during assembly, less risk of tearing or crushing the cork, and more consistent performance over time. Glossary: "cork" refers to the material fixed on certain joints to ensure fit and stability.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
If you often transport your instrument, pairing this cork grease with a well-fitted case or cover helps limit temperature and humidity fluctuations, common causes of cork drying.
