Detail 01
5-inch size
Longer bar than a 4-inch, so it sits lower in pitch and sustains noticeably longer after the strike.

Treeworks5" Triangle
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 5-inch steel triangle. The larger bar rings longer and lower than a 4-inch — the general-purpose choice for concert and orchestral parts.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Sustained triangle notes that need to ring under a held chord
- A first triangle for a percussionist building a concert kit
- Church and worship settings needing a soft shimmer that carries
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Rapid articulated passages where the long ring blurs notes
- Players who already own a mid-size triangle and want contrast
- Anyone wanting the highest, most cutting ping available
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
Steel construction
Bright, complex overtones that cut through an ensemble rather than the dull thud of softer metals.
Detail 03
Natural finish
Bare metal with no coating to damp the ring. Expect fingerprints and light tarnish over time.
Detail 04
Open-corner triangle shape
The unclosed corner is what makes it ring instead of clank. Never clamp that corner in a holder.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Verify whether a beater and clip are included before ordering
- 02Needs a clip or holder to hang freely; holding the bar damps the sustain
- 03Longer sustain means more hand damping work in fast passages
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Should I get the 5-inch or the 4-inch?
The 5-inch is the safer single purchase — lower pitch, longer ring, and it covers most concert repertoire. Add the 4-inch later for fast passages.
02Does it include a beater or clip?
Check the included items before ordering. Beaters and holders are often bought separately, and beater diameter changes the tone as much as the triangle does.
03Will the natural finish tarnish?
Bare steel picks up fingerprints and can dull over time. It affects looks more than sound; a wipe-down after playing keeps it clean.
04Is one triangle enough for orchestral work?
For school and community playing, yes. Professional players carry several sizes to match pitch and decay to the piece.
