aqua hot parts needed -
rvguy - 12-19-2023
so my aquahot is a older unit model 431xe/12. it has the rae corporation part # 2310122 swirl pumps. I am in the need for brushes for these motors. aqua hot no longer sales these parts. I have reached out to rae corp to see what I can find, but was wondering if anyone has ever had the same experience and has located where to get the brushes. any help would be awesom. Newell does not stock these parts anylonger either. looking for 8 brushes ( 4 sets )

The good news is motor manufacturers don't make their own carbon brushes. After measuring the physical characteristics of your brushes, you can find replacements at
helwigcarbon.com or Mcmaster Carr.
Good luck.

I've had to buy brushes that are close in size but slightly larger then use a file to file them down to correct size, ACE hardware has a good selection.

so for everyone who needs brushes for the rae swirl pumps. Was able to contact rae and get the part # and the supplier. Rae # for the brush kits is 16899166. ( 2 brushes and 2 new black caps ). you cant buy from then so there supplier is
electric motor company
wilmar,mn 56201

They actually had them is stock
another good contact I found was
advancecarbon.com
510-293-5930
They had them in stock as well.
Just thought I would let everyone know who has the older aquahots with the rae swirl pumps. aquahot does not sell the parts for the pumps so 55.00 for brushes is alot cheaper that 489.00 a piece for the new pumps.

I paid a lot less for the brushes.. Been trying to find the correct part number... been working a lot.
www.carbonbrush.com
They are also used in dewalt and other brands drills and the like.
I will continue to look for the actual part number
