Default PTC Thermistor for nicad battery pack

For the Sensata Klixon device I don't know of a reseller so if you specifically
want that item you should enquire from Sensata. Sensata say that theie USA/Canda
distributor is Component Concepts http://www.componentconcepts.com/ but to see
whatthey have you have to click on the Thermal products tab and select Texas
Instruments from the menu. Apparently, Klixon came unddr the TI company at one
time and CC haven't updated their catalog yet. One product which has been around
in their range is the 7AM and this is also made by a number of companies ie
Thermtrol http://www.thermtrol.com/

There are other manufacturers of similar devices which have been around for a
long time. ie Pepi http://www.pepiusa.com/modn.html
Electronic Goldmine sells a pack of 3 for $1 each

Hope this helps.
