Indeed, the Zorbster has a unique clutch.
the brush goes round when the handle is lowered, but doesn't when the handle is upright.

You can get them of course, but I probably wouldn't bother. They are not supposed to be a tight seal and even if they are a bit tired, they are unlikely to affect performance noticeably.
We'll send some used ones to you if you feel you need them. We have never yet sold any new ones since we have been open. Just send Claire an email at claire@ [domain] and she will arrange to get some out to you. Send her a photo of exactly the location of which ones you want so there is no confusion. Although, I fit one every blue moon. Usually people who think they need them have misdiagnosed.
