The set I used were ordered from Pianotek, along with some other items.
So, they could tell you what they stock.

  Paul,

  Which of the 3 available hammer felts (Bacon, VFG, or Wurzen) did you use?

  thanks,

  Mike

        Greetings,

                       I would like to replace an old upright Becker
Brother's hammers. What are the best hammers for old turn of the century
pianos? What hammers have the best quality?


        Thank you

      I  recently  installed a set of Ronsen hammers in a 1902 Smith and
Barnes upright.  The customers are thrilled with the warm rich tone they
consider to be "authentic."   A small amount of hammer hardener was needed
in the 6th and 7th octave to brighten them.  The rest of the hammers
required no additional voicing.
