Bellows Cloth
+++ Colors of the cloth may change but the quality will not +++

"How much cloth do I need?" - Click Here
Minimum "Length" we'll cut for ALL Cloth is six inch increments!!



'Heavier' Bellows Cloth....$94.00/yd.(or 31.50/ft.)

Excellent quality cloth. Medium tan outside, white inside with a 0.028 in. layer of natural rubber sandwiched in between. Smooth cloth on both sides. Not fuzzy on the inside. For Large Exhausters, Large Reservoirs, and Rotary Pump Bellows. Thickness is 0.045 in. Width is 57 in. To place an order, Click Here.

For those who plan to rebuild only one player piano, we will supply minimum sized strips of heavy cloth measuring 57" x 6" for $16.00 each. To place an order, Click Here.
This product is being phased out.

'Heavy' Bellows Cloth....$84.00/yd.(or $28.50/ft.)

The thickness of this heavy cloth is 0.044 in. This cloth is much more flexible than the 'Heavier' cloth just above. It too is an excellent cloth for exhausters and reservoirs. However, being more flexible, it is easier to work with when covering small to medium-large bellows like those found in most player pianos. The maximum width is 57 in. Also available in 6" x 57" strips for $14.50. This cloth is also better than the 'Heavier' cloth when making a 'Mandolin Rail' or 'Honky-Tonk' device. We also sell the 'Mandolin Rail Tabs' -click here. To place an order, Click Here.


Peripheral Devices Cloth Type "A"....$81.00/yd.(or $27.50/ft.)

This general purpose cloth is superb for Tracking Services, Auto-Sustain, Bass & Treble Soft devices, and any other application where a medium weight cloth is required. Black on one side and lavender on the other with natural rubber in the middle. Slightly thicker, a bit more flexible, and a little more expensive than Type "B" cloth. Thickness is 0.014 in. Width is 51 in.
Due to an increasing demand for correctly biased strips of motor cloth for Spring-Loaded devices like Air Motor Governors, Auto-Sustains, and Equalizers, I am now offering 6" x 25" strips of this cloth for $7.15 ea. Also, for those who don't care about which way the cloth is biased, I still sell 6" x 36" strips for $11.25 ea.
Remember: Credit Card Orders of less than $15.00 are subject to a $2.50 Surcharge.
To place an order, Click Here. (If ordering strips, specify; Strips of Type "A")


Motor/Peripheral Devices Cloth Type "B"....$74.00/yd.(or $25.00/ft.)

This general purpose cloth is great for Air-Motors, Tracking Services and Governors. Wine-colored outside and white/gray inside with neoprene in the middle. Thickness is 0.012 in. Width is 52 in.
Due to an increasing demand for correctly biased strips of medium cloth for Spring-Loaded devices like Air Motor Governors, Auto-Sustains, and Equalizers, I am now offering 6" x 26" strips of this cloth for $6.50 ea. Also, for those who don't care about which way the cloth is biased, I still sell 6" x 36" strips for $10.25 ea.
Remember: Credit Card Orders of less than $15.00 are subject to a $2.50 Surcharge.

Striker Pneumatic Cloth.... $49.50/yd.(or $16.75/ft.)

Simply the finest 'original-type' Striker Pneumatic Cloth in the World. Thickness is 0.008 in. Width is 52 in. Have a small job that requires very little cloth? 6" x 26" pieces are available for $8.50. To place an order, Click Here.


Reed Organ Bellows Cloth.... $68.00/yd.

This is excellent quality reed organ bellows cloth. Black cotton cloth inside with a thick natural rubber coating on the outside. Thickness is 0.024 in. Width is 58 in. Sold by the running yard (36 in.) or in strips measuring 2-1/3 ft. x 7 ft. for $5.30/sq. ft. ($86.57) Now also available in 6 ft. x 8 in. strips (for an exhauster) for $5.30/sq. ft. ($21.20) Saves you at least 33% over the cost per running yard if you are only rebuilding one reed organ. NOTE: This cloth is not recommended for use in player pianos. Credit Card Orders of less than $15.00 are subject to a $2.50 Surcharge. To place an order, Click Here.

Now Playing: This MIDI file is called "Saved by Gabriel". It was created on May 17, 1998 after hearing the song on an old cassette tape. Gabriel Della Fave converted the audio cassette to Real Audio and I wrote the midi file the next day. Like many of my tunes, this one never had a title.... until now.
