Hello all,

I was looking for the replacement rubber feet for a fleet of my devices (C64/1541/128/A500/A1200), since with the time they go either rock hard and start to crumble or they go sticky.
Some online retailer have replacements (some better, some worse, and some useless), I also scraped the web for all the info I could find and turned out a lot of people were saying that 3M is doing (did) the original ones. So after hours of research I think I have found all the information that could help you guys. Leaving it here for all the other peeps.

These are virtually the same - same colour, same size, same hight and shape as the most popular rubber feet Commodore did use (I am aware that on some Amiga models, Commodore used a bit different type of rubber feet, but these are rare).

Product name: 3M™ Bumpon™ Protective Products
Product number: SJ-5012 (WHITE) - note: the "white" ones are the "cream white", the "true white" are "white white", so you need "white" :)

They are available at:
https://www.mouser.co.uk/ProductDet...lty/SJ-5012-WHITE?qs=ItEYEd4DnG3Bdxbq5dgnAg==

If you know any other sources for them, add them in the comments please (Mouser has crazy high delivery charges for small orders in the EU and the UK ).

Great find, thanks! I will also get some black ones, for my competition pro joysticks.
Does anyone know where to find new rubber feet for the A1000?
 
Sorry to say this but I found that out around 2007. I didn't post about it here on Amibay because another guy, mrr19121970 was offering them.

I have them in white, grey and black...
 
Oh, it wasn't my intention to **** on someone else's steps.

Let's hope mrr19121970 can still sell his stock, especially that Mouser requires large quantities to be ordered or they will charge you ~£12/€15 for delivery.
