Milwaukee Brush with Shunt Assembly
Model Number: 22-18-0075
The Milwaukee 22-18-0075 is a genuine OEM Brush with Shunt Assembly replacement for compatible Milwaukee brushed power tools — a complete carbon brush assembly including the brush, shunt wire, and associated hardware as a single service unit. The shunt wire is the flexible copper braid conductor that maintains electrical continuity between the carbon brush body and the tool's electrical circuit as the brush wears progressively shorter from commutator contact during tool operation — without the shunt wire, the brush's primary electrical connection pathway through the spring would be relied on for current delivery, which produces uneven current flow and the arcing that damages commutator surfaces. The shunt wire maintains a consistent low-resistance electrical path from the brush face contact point to the brush holder's electrical terminal throughout the brush's full service life from new to minimum wear length.
The complete brush-with-shunt assembly format simplifies field service by providing all the electrical and mechanical brush components in a single OEM-sourced unit — the shunt wire's connection to the brush body is factory-made to the correct specification, eliminating the field assembly steps that would be required if the brush and shunt were separate service components. When replacing brush assemblies, inspect both assemblies and replace both simultaneously to maintain balanced electrical delivery to the armature commutator from both brush positions. Always verify your specific Milwaukee tool's model number and serial number at milwaukeetool.com before ordering, as brush assembly specifications — including brush compound, dimensions, and shunt wire configuration — are unique to each motor design and production revision.
