Looking for a thermal fuse

Looking for a fuse for a ceiling heater. It's a Nutone 920 made in the late 50's and I can't seem to find this fuse any ware. I found 2 stores online that might have it. Does anyone here have an idea?

What's the amp rating on the fuse? I'd just replace it with a modern style fuse.

You would need to know the temp rating on it. This particular one is not current protection but temperature protection.

If you can find out which Buss WKJ thermal fuse it is you should be able to find it, otherwise you should be able to find the temp rating and match the specs to a currently available thermal fuse.
