Brushed motor cans & endbells
Most motor brands didn't make their own cans or endbells. A thread with the options they had to choose from might be interesting. My intention is to just have a sample of each variation of the parts.
Starting with motors using Yokomo parts. Reedy seems to have almost exclusively used Yokomo parts for most of their brushed motors.

Re: Brushed motor cans & endbells
Checkpoint motors are the most common place to find these cans and endbells but some other brands did use them. I'm not positive if Checkpoint was the maker of the parts. They are one of the cans that had an aluminum mounting face.

Kyosho made their own parts and is another that has steel cans with the aluminum mounting face.

Re: Brushed motor cans & endbells
Sagami also had made a steel and aluminum ended can.

Re: Brushed motor cans & endbells
Atlas was another make. I don't see their parts on other brands though. The chrome can here looks similar to a Sagami

Re: Brushed motor cans & endbells
I'm lumping the M's together, just because. Mabuchi and Malung
. Mabuchi also had a steel and aluminum can.

Re: Brushed motor cans & endbells
It's worth noting that Lightspeed never used a Checkpoint aluminum endbell, so the former owner swapped it out at one point. Checkpoint sold bulk platinum cans (and possibly alum endbells) to Fantom though, and they used their own arms and endbells.

Re: Brushed motor cans & endbells
Trinity/EPIC has produced a lot of variety.
. . . . .
There are a couple of common styles that looks to be from Kyosho design.

Air Supply endbells.

The Air Supply motors I've come across look to have Yokomo style cans.

I'm also going to lump together Diamond and Tomy for no particular reason.
