"Love, love, love this flute. I leave it out on the table, I pick it up, and play it no muss no fuss, no worries about cracked wood in dry winter conditions." Marcia F.

Listen to Tom Doorley put our Delrin keyed flute through it's paces:

Feel the pure joy of playing a high-quality instrument designed with precision and care. The Delrin Intermediate Keyed Flute is meticulously crafted from top-grade Delrin material, offering the warmth and beauty of a wooden flute with the resilience and stability that Delrin is known for.

Rainy days and varying temperatures won't stand in your way as you create beautiful melodies that will captivate your listeners.

Delrin® is a tough, lightweight and durable acetal polymer with inherent low friction, low wear, low noise, low moisture pick-up and excellent spring back properties and makes for an excellent low maintenance flute as it is not subject to cracks due to dryness or stress at the joints.

This Delrin® flute is made to play and sound as closely as possible to the Irish wooden flute. The traditional elliptical embouchure is standard and provides a wide range of tonal flexibility.

"I can't put it down." Brent S.

A normal fully keyed flute made from African Blackwood would cost well over €2,000 so our version is great value!

This flute must be tried to appreciate its gorgeous tones and great intonation and is perfect for those wishing to test the keyed flute waters; we offer a 30 day trial wherein you can send it back to us for a full refund if you’re not 100% satisfied.

Not only do you get your premium Irish flute with this purchase, but also a high-quality Foam Lined Flute Case as well! This high-quality case is perfect for storing and protecting your instrument from all of the common scratches and blemishes that are usually picked up over the years.

The foam lining acts as a shock absorber to protect the flute from any potential impact. Plus, the case also helps regulate the temperature and humidity, reducing the flute’s wood degrading over time as well!

This flute case is really a must-have for any flute enthusiast or touring flutist looking to protect their instrument.

Tuning Slide

The tuning slide means you can adjust the pitch to adapt to any playing situation from a session environment to outdoor recitals and everything in between. Also handy if your venerable fellow musician is playing slightly sharp or flat.

Foot Joints

This flute has a separate foot joint with two holes. This is derived from the traditional eight key flute, where the two foot joint holes are closed by keys to give the C sharp and C natural notes. We have retained the basic design because it nicely balances the weight of the metal tuning slide, to give a very comfortable flute.

Keys

6 Key Set Up

Keys are mounted on integral pins, following traditional design. All keys are made from nickel-silver. Foot keys are the traditional articulated design, with the key and pin locations positioned to give a quick response and a very positive seal. Keyed for Eb, F♮ (x2), G#, Bb and C♮.

Design

This is a tapered bore, simple system flute based on originals made during the 1800's, with the greatest influence being the flutes made by Hawkes and Son of London. The design has been adapted to give the characteristics sought after by players of Irish Traditional Music.

Our flutes achieve a balance of tone, volume, and flexibility throughout the 2 octave range. The standard flute is pitched in the key of D and tuned to concert pitch (A440) with a tuning slide to adjust the tuning or playing style.
