Milwaukee Carbon Brush
Model Number: 22-16-0275
The Milwaukee 22-16-0275 is a genuine OEM Carbon Brush for compatible Milwaukee brushed power tools — a replacement individual carbon brush element for the specific motor design this brush serves. The carbon brush makes sliding electrical contact with the rotating armature commutator to conduct current to the armature windings, and its carbon compound specification is precisely calibrated for the specific motor's operating conditions — the carbon grade, hardness, and conductivity are matched to the commutator material, motor speed, and current density for optimal performance and service life. When the carbon brush wears to the end of its service length, spring force can no longer maintain adequate contact pressure against the commutator, leading to arcing, intermittent power, and commutator damage if operation continues beyond the wear limit.
The individual brush format is appropriate when only one brush requires replacement — for example, if one brush is accidentally damaged during a service procedure while the other remains serviceable. However, Milwaukee recommends replacing both brush positions simultaneously in most service situations to maintain balanced electrical delivery from both contact positions throughout the subsequent service interval. Always verify your specific Milwaukee tool's model number and serial number at milwaukeetool.com before ordering brush components, as brush specifications — including dimensions, compound grade, and lead orientation — are unique to each motor design and production revision.
