Vent Window Pivot Shim

I'm looking for a source for the thin brass(?) shim that is used on the pivot for the vent window on the '50 F-1. If I'm reading my micrometer correctly, it's only .015" thick. In the diagram below, I think it's part #356425-S. Any ideas where to get some?

I think hardware stores that have assortments of odd parts for lamps, etc. have them.

You may get by with a wave washer, which you could get at the hardware store also.

Thanks for the responses. Looks like I can get a package of 10 from McMaster-Carr. The S&H is probably going to double the price.
