Agastat is now owned by Tyco. Here is a link to one of their distributors.

I didn't search for your specific time range but you can probably find one to cover your application.

Many of the old agastat relays were pneumatic. When voltage was applied to the coil an armature would push or pull on a baffle creating air pressure in a chamber. The time delay was created by adjusting the size of an orifice to bleed off this pressure to allow contacts to make or break. If your application does not require a pneumatic relay then you can replace it with an electrical or electronic relay having the same time charactoristics and contact configuration.
