Milwaukee Carbon Brush Assembly
Model Number: 22-18-1170
The Milwaukee 22-18-1170 is a genuine OEM Carbon Brush Assembly for use in compatible Milwaukee corded tools. This assembly provides the carbon brush, spring, and sleeve as a matched set — ensuring the correct compound grade, spring tension, and sleeve dimensions are all factory-matched for proper commutator contact throughout the brush service life. The retaining cap is sold separately and is not included with this assembly. Carbon brushes transfer electrical current from the stationary brush holder to the rotating commutator in a universal (brushed) motor, sustaining the armature winding energization that drives motor rotation. Brushes wear through normal operation and must be replaced before they wear down to where the spring contacts the commutator and causes irreversible damage. Replacing worn assemblies with genuine OEM units restores motor performance and extends commutator life.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM carbon brush assembly ensures the correct compound grade, brush dimensions, sleeve fit, and spring tension for the motor and holder it serves. Note that the retaining cap is sold separately — verify you have or order the correct cap for your application. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct assembly for your specific unit.
