There is a Rovner lig for metal mouthpieces, the C1M (in the MKIII). The Rovner fit guide is here http://www.rovnerproducts.com/support/most-common-fit-guide.php. It should tell you what you want to know. They are great ligs! **Q: How do you clean this without damaging it?** A: You can wipe it off with a cloth or tissue. It's pretty tough. I wouldn't worry about damaging it. Don't put it in the dishwasher. It is a good product that can nicely improve the tone of your sax. **Q: Will this fit Yamaha 5c mouthpiece?** A: It looks like it should fit. As long as it is not a slim model it should fit. I purchased the lig but can't use it as all my mouthpieces are slim. **Q: Does this fit a yamaha 5c? I found one question but it doesnt specifically answer it.** A: Yes it should fit, everything that has to do with the mouthpiece’s specific classification such as 5C or if it’s 4C etc., has to do with the interior of the mouthpiece. Make sure you select the right ligature. If your 5C mouthpiece is for a Tenor Sax or an Alto Sax the ligature must be the same (alto sax ligature has to go with the alto sax mouthpiece). If it’s for a clarinet mouthpiece you must buy the clarinet ligature. ## Frequently Bought Together - Rovner Ligature & Plastic Cap for Alto Standard Saxophone - MKIII Ligature for Hard Rubber Mouthpiece (C-1RL) - Yamaha 4C Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece, Standard Series - Vandoren SR213 Alto Sax Traditional Reeds Strength 3; Box of 10 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1259371-rovner-ligature-and-plastic-cap-for-alto-standard-saxophone-mkiii](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1259371-rovner-ligature-and-plastic-cap-for-alto-standard-saxophone-mkiii) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-03*
