[pianotech] Rubber watchamacalits

On Steinway's I've used a rubber hose, like a gas supply line. Measure the inside dimension of the cup in the pedal, and then go to an auto supply store and buy a rubber hose with the same outside dimension.

I tuned a Baldwin SF grand today that I haven't seen for a while.  The sustain 
edal squeaked, and as far as I could tell the offender was the hard, dried out, 
ubber cup, bushing, collar (I don't know what to call it) that sits in the end 
f the pedal and receives the pedal rod.  Does anyone know where to get these?  
hey are not the same from piano to piano.  I have some for other brands, and 
hey did not work here.  The whole set needs to be replaced.  I can't find them 
n Schaff's catalog (doesn't mean they aren't there).
