Seeking a supplier of motor brushes by dimension, as seeking
by model # has proven futile. (Rigid shop vac WD06350).

Suggestions?

Try aliexpress, "graphite brushes" pulls up a few pages of items.
Additionally, I have a baggie of 'em from devices that failed for unrelated
reasons... just in case. A file can get you to the right size quick (but do it o
outdoors, and you'll want to wash up afterward).

Look for make and model number of the motor, rather than
the appliance.

Thanks. That may well be a winner.

They're definitely out there. It's "Ridgid" ?

Search ebay or Amazon by dimensions. In mm, generally. Then pay close
attention to the connection at the other end. Sometimes, the motor/tool
model will get you something quick.
