8 mm Carbon Fiber Endpin Set NHM

$109.00

The 8mm NHM endpin is solid carbon fiber with a heat-hardened steel tip, 20″ long and comes with the matching composite fitting which tightens with a collar rather than putting pressure of a screw tip against the rod.  Fittings are available in 27.5 and 25.5mm so you need to know the size the opening in your cello when placing your order.  Protective rubber cap for the extremely sharp tip is included and extras may be purchased.

  • Composite Fitting for 8 mm endpin (NHM)

    This New Harmony Music endpin fitting is composite with stainless steel and can be used with your existing 8mm endpin, or you can purchase one of our options.   Keep in mind there are tolerances so a misfit (while rare) is possible.  You will need to know the diameter of the hole in your cello from the current fitting so you can choose either the Small 23.5 mm, Medium 25.5 mm, or Large 27.5 mm.   There is no angled bore option for an 8mm endpin.

  • Stahlhammer replacement tightener

    ** Read to the end – new update.  If you have overtightened the telescoping rod so it no longer holds, you have split the interior tightening mechanism.  This is a nylon sleeve and is replaceable.  Unscrew the extension rod and remove, take the tightening lock off, and gently screw the new one on.  Do not overtighten when you adjust your endpin next time.  Just enough to hold.   ***If you read the instructions inside the box, specifically No. 8, it suggests you routinely remove the inner tube and apply a few drops of alcohol to the nylon sleeve.  Apparently nylon off-gases, and produces a film which may act as a lubricant.  So even if you have not put oil in the mechanism, you still need to clean this part.  According to Semmy Stahlhammer, the nylon piece is strong and should not need to be replaced IF PROPERLY MAINTAINED.
