I'm working with a customer to manufacture brand new end
housings for some special DC motors. We need to source brush
holders. At first, I was thinking of using off the shelf
holders with insulating sleeves, but have an interest now in
sourcing something closer to the existing brush holder and
making our own insulating sleeves.

Last week while browsing late at night, I found a small US
company that machines brush holders out of brass, and sells
them uninsulated. Near as I recall, it was a single page
website.

Needless to say, I failed to bookmark it, and cannot find it
in my browser's history. I've spent over 6 hours trying to
find it again, via Google, Thomas Online and GlobalSpec.

Does anyone recognize the page I'm talking about, or know of
any US manufacturers of machined brass brush holders for a
1/8 x 1/4 brush, with a length of about 1.6"?

Thanks,

Jon
