Authentic feel
You can tell this is real leather. It grips the flywheel well without slipping, even when pedaling fast. The complete set included the little hook tool which made tightening much easier.

Perfect fit for my vintage machine
I was worried about finding a belt for my 1970s Butterfly machine, but this set was exactly what I needed. The leather feels thick and durable, not flimsy like synthetic ones. Installation took about 15 minutes.

Brings the machine back to life
My grandmother's sewing machine has been sitting idle for years due to a broken belt. This replacement worked perfectly. The tension is just right, and the stitching is smooth again. Highly recommended!

Good quality, instructions could be clearer
The belt itself is excellent quality and runs smoothly on the foot pedal mechanism. I deducted one star because the installation diagram was a bit small to read. Otherwise, a great purchase for restoring old equipment.

Solid replacement part
Does exactly what it says. The belt is thickened as described and seems like it will last a long time. Shipping was fast, and everything arrived in good condition.

Great value for money
Much cheaper than buying from a specialized repair shop and the quality is comparable. If you have an old-style foot pedal machine, keep this belt on hand as a spare.
Q: Can this be used on electric sewing machines with a motor?
A: This belt is intended for manual, foot-pedal operated old-style machines. It may not be suitable for high-speed electric motor drives unless the machine uses the same traditional flywheel system.
Q: Is the leather pre-treated to prevent stretching over time?
A: Yes, the leather is thickened and treated to maintain its shape and tensile strength. While minor initial settling may occur during the first few hours of use, it is designed to resist excessive stretching.
Q: Will this belt fit a Singer old-style machine or only Butterfly brand?
A: This belt is designed specifically for the standard drive mechanism found in most old-style household foot pedal machines, including many vintage Singer and Butterfly models. Please check your flywheel diameter to ensure compatibility.
Q: What should I do if the belt feels too loose after installation?
A: Leather belts often require a brief break-in period. If it remains too loose, you can re-adjust the tension using the included hook tool. Ensure the belt is seated correctly in the grooves of both wheels.
Q: Do I need any special tools to install this belt?
A: No special tools are required. The complete set includes a small installation hook specifically designed to help you loop and tighten the leather belt onto the flywheel and pedal wheel easily.
