High E Facilitator

Also known as the "donut" for its striking good looks. It is a simple washer looking item (of various materials) that is inserted in the lower G hole. This serves as an economical alternative to the E-mechanism and has largely the same result. Many fine players still prefer the intonation benefit of the E-mech.
The Powell company uses a silver crescent insert they call a "G Disk". This is standard on the Powell 2100 and 3100 flutes, and optional on the custom series. Prima Sankyo provides the "donut" as standard on the flutes it is now building.

In our shop, we can install an E facilitator on any flute. This can be removed later if so desired.
