Mouser is one supplier, Antique Electronic Supply is another. Five
minutes with Google will find others.
One issue that's new in recent years, particularly with places as big
as Mouser, is the number of choices. In particular watch out for
metric parts with 6 mm shafts and 8 mm bushings. Read the specs
closely before ordering.
That wattage requirement will narrow your choices some: Those will
have to be wirewound.
Come to think of it, wirewound pots don't usually go permanently bad
unless they're overloaded. Have you tried just working them back and
forth a couple dozen times?
