Perfect replacement
Review by John N. on 5 Feb 2026 review stating Perfect replacement In the past, I didn't even know that you could buy replacements for these. I used to use heat-shrink tubing, which didn't fit exactly, and didn't have the right texture. Glad to find the Strings by Mail sells them.
They were hard to get on at first, until I considered using a lubricant- needed something that was known to not chemically attack latex. Turns out a couple drops of KY jelly inside the tube made them slide on easily. I waited a day or two for the water to evaporate, and then trimmed the rubber sleeves to length, and they look perfect.
