The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Selmer
Cut to Selmer's own body socket dimensions, so it seats correctly on their horns without shimming.
Detail 03
$10.99
Cheaper than one bent octave key repair, which is the damage a missing plug usually causes.
Detail 04
Sold as a plug, not a kit

Final check
Know before you order

- 02No mouthpiece cap, neck, or cork comes with it
- 03A loose plug rattles in the case; it should seat with light friction
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What does a saxophone end plug actually do?
It sits in the body socket where the neck attaches while the horn is in its case. That keeps case padding and pressure off the octave key mechanism, which bends easily.
02Will this fit my alto?
Body sockets differ between alto, tenor, and baritone. Check the size against your horn's socket before ordering, since a plug from the wrong size will sit loose or refuse to enter.
03Does it fit non-Selmer saxophones?
It is made to Selmer dimensions. Many horns copy that sizing closely, but fit on another brand is not guaranteed — measure your socket if you are unsure.
04Do I really need one?
If your case has a neck compartment and the body sits under padding, yes. Playing without one is fine; storing without one is how octave keys get bent.
