Pirastro 1PERVAC Perpetual Violin A String, Chrome Steel, 4/4, Removable Ball

Pirastro Perpetual Violin A String

The Pirastro Perpetual Violin A String features a steel core with chrome-steel winding for 4/4 violins. This Medium-gauge version includes a removable ball end, allowing attachment to compatible ball-end or loop-end fine tuners. Its published playing tension is 13 lb, and its tonal character emphasizes roundness, color, and fullness.

For violinists seeking a chrome-wound steel A replacement, this configuration offers a focused choice within the Perpetual family. The removable fitting accommodates different tuner designs without requiring separate end-type versions. Choose this full-size violin string when matching manufacturer part number 31A221 or selecting a metal-core A to pair with the series' synthetic-core D and G strings.

Pirastro develops this version to provide a smooth tonal transition from the Perpetual D position. The manufacturer specifies a steel core and chrome-steel wrapping for this particular model. Gray peg-end silk and white/ruby tailpiece wrapping help identify it during installation. Match the size, gauge, and part number when ordering to select the correct individual replacement for your setup.
