I have the 4" Specmat Technologies Discharge Wicks on my airplane.  I am not at the hangar.  Can anyone get me the proper part number?  Are there any others that would work.  I changing shirts at the hanger, put my arm in a sleeve, mildly hit the base of the wick on the rudder and it broke in half in a millisecond.  Really do not want to pay $55 bucks for this problem.

Well I have a partial answer:

Specmat 10-900-59/1 and 10-900-60/1 it seems will both work.  The 60/1 I think is the 4" version.

There is also a TSO DD-1W which apparently is a replacement, but I have seen it listed for non-certified aircraft.

Anyone know more than that to advise the best replacement for the least money?

I bought some TCO DD-1(W) from SkyGeek but returned them as they were 6” long not 4. 

Couldn’t find a retail source for the Specmats which are on my airplane. Ended up just buying them from LASAR. Yeah, they’re expensive.

I remove them when the plane goes in a shop for maintenance. I also check the torque on them during preflight ever since one went missing during a flight.

I accidentally broke one today.  I found the 60/1 on ebay.  I have one spare already so feel free to outbid me if you need to get them.  my maximum bid currently is $66 for two but the current bid is $61.  They list $5.00 for shipping.

I just had one replaced, that price seems about right.  My buddy had to have one replaced as well, he may or may not have used the experimental version.
