Milwaukee Carbon Brush Assembly
Model Number: 22-18-0706
The Milwaukee 22-18-0706 is a genuine OEM Carbon Brush Assembly replacement for compatible Milwaukee brushed power tools — a complete brush assembly unit containing the carbon brush, spring, and housing components as an integrated service part for Milwaukee brushed motor tools. Carbon brushes are the primary consumable wear component in brushed electric motors, conducting current between the stationary electrical contacts and the rotating armature through sliding contact with the commutator ring. As the carbon brush wears down through normal motor operation, the contact pressure and electrical transmission quality progressively change, and when the brush reaches minimum usable length the tool loses performance and eventually stops running. The complete assembly format provides all components needed for a full brush replacement in a single OEM-sourced part, simplifying field and shop service by ensuring all components are the correct matched specification for the tool's motor design.
Replacing worn brush assemblies before they reach complete failure prevents the armature commutator damage from arcing that occurs when the brush body wears through to the spring or wire lead — commutator damage from arcing requires the more expensive and time-consuming repair of armature replacement or commutator resurfacing that proper brush maintenance prevents. Most Milwaukee brushed motors use two brush assemblies on opposite sides of the armature — always inspect both assemblies when servicing one, and replace both simultaneously to maintain balanced electrical delivery and consistent brush contact pressure across both sides of the motor. Verify your specific Milwaukee tool's model number and serial number at milwaukeetool.com to confirm the correct carbon brush assembly part number before ordering, as specifications vary by tool model and serial number range.
