Musical instruments

Musical instruments and accessories incorporate a wide range of small components. These include, for example, plugs, adjustment screws, stoppers and rollers, which fulfil different functions depending on the design.

The requirements do not stem solely from the actual use of the instruments. Instruments are frequently transported, set up and dismantled, and may come into contact with different types of flooring in the process.
