Brush Frame model 23 carbon brush 6.2×8×13 mm for electric motors

Frame model 23 carbon brush with nominal dimensions 6.2×8×13 mm is a single replacement brush designed to restore electrical contact in electric motors and rotating electrical machines. Intended for applications where this specific brush gauge fits, it provides the conductive interface between stationary and moving parts and is suitable for routine maintenance and repair of power tools, small motors and household appliances that accept this size.

Advantages

The carbon composition offers stable conductivity and wear characteristics appropriate for intermittent and continuous motor operation. Its compact 6.2×8×13 mm size enables straightforward installation in housings designed for model 23 brushes. Supplied as an individual brush, it allows targeted replacement without the need to purchase multi-packs or full brush sets. The precise rectangular shape and consistent dimensions support reliable brush seating and predictable wear behaviour.

Suitable for

• Repair and maintenance of hand-held power tools
• Replacement in small electric motors and gear motors
• Servicing household appliances with compatible brush holders
• Prototyping or salvaging rotating electrical machines accepting model 23 brushes

Key specifications

• Material: carbon (graphitic conductive compound)
• Shape: rectangular block suitable for sliding contact
• Dimensions: 6.2 × 8 × 13 mm (thickness × width × length)
• Unit: single brush (sold individually)
• Intended use: collector/commutator contact in rotating electrical machines

How to use

Ensure the motor is disconnected from power before attempting replacement. Remove the housing or brush holder cover to access the worn brush. Extract the old brush from its holder, noting the orientation and how any springs or leads are attached. Insert the new Frame model 23 carbon brush into the holder in the same orientation, reconnect any spring or lead as originally mounted, and check that the brush slides freely within its guide while maintaining light contact with the commutator or slip ring. Reassemble the housing and perform a functional test at low load to confirm proper operation and seating.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the commutator or slip rings for pitting, grooves or heavy deposits before fitting the new brush; heavy damage should be addressed to avoid rapid brush wear. Replace brushes in matched pairs where applicable and observe correct spring pressure and seating time to ensure reliable contact and extended service life.
