Grainger usually has what you need but they are seldom the cheapest

I've done a lot of business with them when I worked for a company that
had an account with them. They are well stocked and have darn near
everything related to motors, and more. But their prices are high. Yet,
I was always satisfied with their products and that means a lot.

If I was buying for myself, I'd probably shop around. I'll keep the URL
posted at the start of this thread.

Yeah. For an industrial customer it was one thing but if I were buying a
motor for my own use...to pay more than $50 for a 1/10th HP motor would
be pretty tough.

Last time I had to do that I found some surplus place on-line.
