U4  Saxophone Mouthpiece Design Features

1,Special air channel design:
  Currently, there are two different types of air channels, Blast1 and Blast2. Each has its own unique features.
2,Curved groove design on both sides
  The increased oscillation space for the reed allows for better control, as the soft and moist reed no longer sticks.
3,Balance screw design on both sides:
  The ligature and mouthpiece body only have two points of contact, eliminating the drawback of being tightly bound around the entire circumference, allowing for unrestricted sound transmission.

Material and feature:

The main body is made of titanium alloy and is integrally formed using 5-axis CNC machining. The buckle is made of SUS304 stainless steel.

Rainbow titanium       
     PVD titanium dioxide photocatalyst, non-toxic and antibacterial,  which helps to    produce a mellow tone.

Golden titanium        
   PVD titanium nitride, with a hardened, non-stick surface,non-toxic,   and stain-resistant, which helps to produce a resonant tone.

 Silver titanium 
Pure titanium alloy without any surface treatment, non-toxic and resistant to acids and alkalis, preserving the pure and clean tone of titanium.

Blast1
To focus the airflow producing a crisp and bright tone.

Blast2
To diffuse the airflow producing a rich and powerful tone.

     U4 brand introduction:

Our company, based in Taiwan, specializes in precision mold manufacturing and CNC machining. Our General Manager, a saxophone enthusiast, noticed that traditional saxophone mouthpieces often lack precision in their openings and angles, leading to inconsistent quality. Additionally, commonly used brass materials pose heavy metal toxicity risks, and platinum can cause allergic reactions for some users.

Leveraging our expertise in titanium alloys, we designed innovative mouthpieces and utilized our in-house 5-axis precision machining equipment for prototyping. After numerous trials and modifications, we successfully developed two unique, non-toxic, and skin-friendly mouthpieces: Blast1 and Blast2,After a long period of testing by professional teachers,These mouthpieces not only reduce the effort required for playing but also produce sound quality comparable to platinum.

The mouthpieces are made from titanium alloy and are precision-machined in one piece using 5-axis CNC technology. The ligature is crafted from SUS304 stainless steel. Additionally, the Rainbow Titanium variant incorporates nano titanium dioxide photocatalyst, making it non-toxic, antibacterial, and resistant to dirt.
