Brush availability

[Scrubcadet10]

Does anyone know if this part is still available? it is a Brush for a sears generator, part number is A24044AGS, everywhere i've looked it says not in stock or ships in 3-4 days.
I found it on the shop.briggsandstratton.com ,but it makes no mention of availability....
Thank you for any help.

Currently unavailable new per the Power Distributor 06/15/2020 price file I just downloaded so NOS on eBay is you best bet if someone still has one for sale. Note the original list price was $9.35.

SO here is the drum on brushes.
They are made by specialist carbon bush makers
So you go to the company with your old one and ask for the nearest replacement
There are just so many ways you can make a tube of carbon with a wire hanging out one end.
As luck would happen I have access to one only 60 miles away and there has never been a brush they did not have or one that was too big which I could cut down.
The big thing is the hardness of the brush so you really have to send it off to them and not flip through a catalogue to find one that Looks the same.
Most big industral estates will have a brush shop there to service all of the electric motors

Shoot, over here in the states, everything is disposable. Rare these days to find a good or even "A" radiator shop. Talking about one that will rod out yours and solder/torch it back up. An actual radiator repair shop. Our lame azz EPA likes to fine people/businesses for MONEY but tends not to help anyone in chemical dumps and so on.

I could talk about the real Chinese long term policy to dominate the world by using the Wests own greed to destroy their own economies but that would be getting political.
This is of course the byproduct of the consolidated capital system of company management but we won't go into that here.\
As for radiator shops they copped it from 2 sides
Chinese radiators priced less than the cost of cleaning the old one
EPA reacting to ignorant news reports that deamonised lead so the solder they used is now banned in most places.

Welp, in need for one more of these brushes... No luck..
I've searched all around locally and nationally to see if I could find a "will fit" replacement. No luck..

The shop I'm working out of, used to be a radiator shop. But the owner, wasn't doing enough radiators to keep the shop supplies in solder, oxygen, radiator tanks and cores. The parts stores were selling new radiators for just a little more than what he could rod one out for.
