Hills Peg Paste Composition

Trusted by generations of string players and luthiers, Hills Peg Paste Composition is the gold standard solution for pegs that stick, slip or refuse to turn smoothly.

Made in England and supplied in its classic lipstick-style applicator, this specialised compound provides the ideal balance of lubrication and friction — helping wooden pegs glide more easily through the peg box while still holding pitch securely once tuned.

A tiny amount goes a very long way, making it an essential case or workshop item for violin, viola, cello and double bass players wanting quick reliable peg maintenance without a full refit. Hill compound is also widely regarded among players as one of the most trusted traditional peg treatments available.
