ABSTRACT:
A pedal for a musical instrument, or the like, includes a pedal plate and a heel plate that are pivotable with respect to each other. An axle extends between axle insertion holes in the heel plate and extends axially outward into axle receiving holes in the pedal plate. A tightening screw at the heel plate is tightened down on the axle for preventing upward and downward movement. A holder which is tightened into the heel plate has a tapered surface for urging the axle forwardly for preventing forward and rearward movement. At each axle receiving hole in the pedal plate, for holding the axle against axial movement, a sliding bearing around the axle is received in a collar inside the receiving opening. The sliding bearing is tightened into the collar squashing an O-ring between the collar and the sliding bearing which prevents axial movement of the axle.
