Reliable source for Slip Rings

Post by BarryC »

Does anyone have a reliable source for 18 to 24 wire slip rings preferably in Europe or US?
I have found 12 or less here is the US but the only source I have found for 18 to 24 is WAY beyond reasonable cost for our application USD 307.00 and up. :O

TIA,
Barry

I had one from forgebear & one from dingding (Andrew Haya) on Ebay last year. Both in the £10-£15 range.

Nice one lposter, I couldn't find anything with 12+ wires that didn't cost an obscene amount of money.

Thanks to all for you assistance!

I just broke down and ordered one from China hopefully it will not be too long in arriving. :)
