What is Brush Holder

The role of the carbon brush holder is to apply pressure to the carbon brush sliding in contact with the commutator or slip ring surface through a spring, so that it can conduct current stably between the stator and the rotor. The brush holder and the carbon brush are very important parts for the motor.

When keeping the carbon brush stable, checking or replacing the carbon brush, it is easy to load and unload the carbon brush in the brush box, adjust the exposed part of the carbon brush under the brush holder (the gap between the lower edge of the brush holder and the commutator or slip ring surface) to prevent wearing out the commutator or slip ring, the change of the pressure of the carbon brush, the direction of pressure and the position of pressure on the carbon brush wear should be small, and the structure should be firm.

Carbon brush holder is mainly made of bronze castings, aluminum castings and other synthetic materials. The brush holder itself is required to have good mechanical strength, processing performance, corrosion resistance, heat dissipation and electrical conductivity.
