Radio Knob Felt Washers (Set of 5)

The Small Detail That Protects Your Cabinet Finish

Every time a knob turns, it has the potential to scratch the cabinet face beneath it. On a vintage radio with an original lacquer or painted finish, those scratches are irreversible — and they accumulate invisibly until the damage is done. Felt washers sit between the knob base and the cabinet surface, absorbing the friction of rotation and protecting the finish from wear. They're the kind of detail that serious restorers install as a matter of course, and the kind of detail that separates a careful restoration from a careless one.

Four Sizes to Fit Any Knob

Knob bases vary across brands, eras, and models — which is why these washers are available in four sizes: 3/4 in., 7/8 in., 1 in., and 1-1/4 in. Match the washer to the base diameter of your knob for a clean, invisible fit that doesn't show beyond the knob edge. All sizes are available in brown, consistent with the original felt used on most vintage American radios. Sold as a set of 5 per size.

A Finishing Touch Worth Getting Right

Felt washers are one of those restoration details that cost almost nothing but make a meaningful difference to the long-term condition of your cabinet. Install them during reassembly and your knobs will turn smoothly, quietly, and without leaving a mark — exactly as they did when the radio left the factory.
