Woodwind Pads Charts and Data

Getting the Right Size Pads

Ferree’s woodwind pads are proportional in thickness, the same as the pads that manufacturers use on new instruments. In other words, the smaller pads are slightly thinner; the larger pads are slightly thicker. Using these pads, you do not have to make “special adjustments” to get the pads level.

Why Ferree's Tools is the Largest Distributor of Saxophone Pads in the United States

The quality and sizing of Ferree’s sax pads are consistently high.

Each pad size has its own special die for cutting and assembling. This does away with the variation in thickness and diameter that most distributors must contend with. When we import a pad we check it to insure that the sizing and quality is as true as possible to the ones we make. Ferree’s is the largest distributor of saxophone pads in the United States. All Ferree’s sax pads are made with 100% woven wool felt, covered with a high grade, specially selected, soft tan leather. We are proud of our sax pads. Our sales indicate that the majority of you are already using our pads. If you are one of the few that isn’t, we hope you’ll try them and see what you’ve been missing. We stock most of our saxophone pads in millimeters as well as 32nds (except for B50 & B60).

Measure your pads cups carefully or send us a sample of the sizes you want.
