FenderBlack Felt Washers (12)
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Twelve black felt washers from Fender. They sit between hardware and finish to prevent contact wear. Small replacement part for guitar maintenance.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Cushioning strap buttons against the guitar's finish
- Restocking a repair bench or gig bag spares kit
- Replacing compressed or missing washers on an older instrument
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone needing strap-lock security — felt does not stop a strap slipping off
- Bright or natural finishes where black felt shows against light wood
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Pack of 12
Enough for several instruments or years of replacements. Felt compresses over time and does get replaced.
Detail 03
Black color
Disappears against dark hardware and sunburst or solid dark finishes. Visible on blonde or natural bodies.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Washers only — no screws, strap buttons or other hardware included
- 02Confirm the inner hole clears your strap button screw before installing
- 03Felt compresses; expect to swap them when a strap starts to feel loose
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What are felt washers actually for?
They go between a piece of hardware and the guitar body so metal never contacts finish directly, reducing wear rings and rattle at the strap button.
02Will these keep my strap from coming off?
No. A felt washer adds friction, not retention. If your strap slips off, you need strap locks or a strap-lock-style button.
03Do these fit non-Fender guitars?
Generally yes, as long as your strap button screw passes through the center hole. Check the hole size against your hardware.
04Why twelve?
They are consumable. Felt flattens under load, so having spares means you can refresh them whenever a strap connection starts feeling loose.
