There is provided a repetition lever for a grand piano, which is excellent
in shape retainability and dimensional stability and is light in weight
and high in rigidity, thereby enabling required operations to be stably
performed and improving the capability of repeated key striking. A
repetition lever 4 for a grand piano, which performs the operation of
pushing up a hammer 30 after the hammer has struck a string, is formed by
a molded article of a thermoplastic resin containing long fibers for
reinforcement, the molded article being molded by a long fiber process.
The repetition lever 4 has reduced cross-sectional area portions 49, 50,
and 54 for reducing weight thereof. The long fibers for reinforcement are
carbon fibers, and the thermoplastic resin is an ABS resin.
