3/16” F1 Wool Felt Grease Wicks for Singer 201‑2 & 221 Potted Motors – 1” Long, Trim to Fit (Pair)

These 3/16” diameter F1 wool‑felt grease wicks are precision‑sized replacements for the internal lubrication ports of Singer 201‑2 and select 221 Featherweight sewing machines with potted motors. Each wick is manufactured from dense, oil‑resistant felt cord and supplied 1” long; you simply trim them to the correct length (typically about 3/4”) to match the depth of your motor’s grease ports. Over time, the original wicks can harden and stop wicking grease properly, leading to increased noise and friction; replacing them with fresh felt wicks restores smooth, quiet operation and helps protect the motor shaft and bushings. This listing is for a pair of wicks, so you can service both sides of the potted motor in one go. Installation is straightforward for vintage‑machine owners: after removing the old, hardened wicks, lightly pack the port with high‑quality sewing‑machine grease, insert the new felt wick, and trim it flush or slightly above the motor housing. These wicks are ideal for mechanics, restorers, and home sewers who want to keep their Singer 201‑2 and compatible 221 machines running smoothly for years to come.

• Replacement wool‑felt grease wicks sized 3/16” diameter for Singer potted‑motor machines, including Singer 201‑2 and 221 Featherweight models with metal‑housing motors.
• Each wick is supplied 1” long and designed to be trimmed to length (typically about 3/4”) to match original port depth; easy to cut with small scissors or shears.
• Made from firm F1 felt wool cord that stays soft when greased, allowing smooth grease transfer from the motor‑port reservoir to the shaft for long‑term lubrication.
• Sold as a convenient pair so both sides of the potted motor can be relubricated at once, restoring smooth, quiet operation to vintage Singer machines.
• Simple DIY upgrade: remove old hardened wicks, pack the port with machine grease, insert the new wick, and trim flush or slightly proud for continuous wicking.
