Our hardwood piano caster cups are manufactured in the United States in the Jansen factory--using the same high-quality woods, finishes, and attention to detail that go into the world-renowned Jansen piano benches. These piano caster cups use superior hardwood from the East Coast of the United States and are finished with a professional, furniture-quality stain.
When choosing a caster cup, the most important factor is the quality of the wood. Not only does a smaller wood grain look better, it also takes a stain better (certain types of woods also take a stain better as well). That is why American and Canadian hardwoods are the best choice for both caster cups and piano benches. This is especially true if you are getting a mahogany or walnut caster cup, where you see the actual wood grain in the Jansen cups--you will not see the grain in the sprayed-on, thick solid finishes of the imported Chinese caster cups.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I determine the right size caster cup for my piano?
How do I determine the right size caster cup for my piano?
- Piano caster cups have two measurements—an overall outer diameter and an inner diameter (bowl area). You need to make sure your piano wheel’s diameter and depth measurements fit within the inner diameter of the cup.
- In general, some space is needed between the wheel and walls of the cup. As the inside of caster cups are often tapered, an exact fit will not match—and would make for difficult installation. We recommend at least a quarter inch difference between the diameter of the inner caster cups and your wheels. For example, if your piano caster's are 2" wide, you need a caster cup that has an inner-diameter of at least 2.25".
