SelmerTenor Saxophone End Plug
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Replacement end plug for Selmer tenor saxophones. It seals the body while the horn is cased so the neck socket and octave key stay protected.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a plug lost in transit or at a rehearsal
- Used tenor purchases that arrived without one
- A spare kept in the case pocket
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Alto or baritone saxophones — the body socket differs
- Anyone expecting it to affect tone or response
- Players needing a neck cork or neck plug instead
What matters in use
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
End plug function
Fills the neck socket so the octave key linkage inside the body is not bent by case pressure.
Detail 03
Selmer fit
Cut for Selmer tenor bodies. Other makers use slightly different socket diameters, so fit elsewhere is hit or miss.
Detail 04
Under $20
Cheap insurance against a bent octave key mechanism, which costs far more to have straightened.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check your case has a plug-shaped cavity — some older cases do not
- 02Confirm tenor, not alto. The two are not interchangeable
- 03Seat it gently. Forcing an oversized plug spreads the socket
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What does a sax end plug actually do?
It fills the neck socket when the horn is in its case, keeping the octave key linkage from getting pressed and bent by the case lid or padding.
02Will this fit an alto sax?
No. Alto sockets are smaller. A tenor plug will not seat, and forcing it risks spreading the socket.
03Do I need one if my case is snug?
Yes. The plug protects the octave key mechanism at the top of the body, which a snug case does not shield on its own.
04Will it fit a non-Selmer tenor?
It may. It is cut to Selmer tenor dimensions, and other brands vary slightly. Test the fit before relying on it.
