Default Brushes

Does anybody know where you can get a bag of good brushes for HH motors and Team Brood motors with stand up brushes? I have sent e-mails to both asking about it but wanted to check on here also. Me and several friends run them and need at least 10 sets asap and we can't find them locally. The local hobby shop that isn't so local told us they don't carry them anymore cause nobody runs brushed motors. Thanks

I am trying to find a bag of them if possible. I use to be able to get a bag of 25 pair or a bag of 50 pair and the largest was 100 pair from the lhs but like I said they don't do brushes anymore. Buying them like that I could get them a good bit cheaper than $3 or so a pair then $5 or $6 + for shipping. I figured it up one time for the bag of 100 pair and it came out right at 50 cents a pair to get them like that.

Why do you need so many? Crawlers/scalers shouldn't go through brushs that quick.

They aren't just for me. I myself only have 5 motors but between me and my friends I crawl with we have at least 10 plus we would like to have spare set per motor just incase. So that would be roughly 20 sets needed.

Eddie at Team Brood just added sets of 10 and sets of 25 to his site. That should get me what I need and maybe help some other people. Maybe Holmes will do the same thing. Thanks for the help.

Yes, the Orion/Peak "enduro" brushes are pretty good. What I've been running for a while.

In general, you are looking for "laydown" or "standup" brushes, they are not motor brand specific.

There are some "non-rebuildable" motors (AKA "sealed can") and "different" brush types like Checkpoints.

My guess is that you have a standard rectangular brush.

Those must have been P94 / D5 / D6 brushes. Not real common.
