Carbon Brush 176846-04

Restore your tool’s performance with this genuine DeWALT carbon brush replacement. Sold individually (note: two are required per set), this OEM part is designed to conduct electrical current within the motor, powering your tool efficiently. Carbon brushes are wear items, meaning they gradually degrade through friction and use. Worn brushes are a common cause of poor motor performance, including intermittent operation, reduced electric braking, and decreased power. A worn-out brush may appear cracked, pitted, burned, or worn down near the wire lead. Replacing them can restore your tool’s functionality and extend its lifespan. When installing new brushes, it’s also important to inspect the armature for signs of damage such as burns or cracks, which may indicate a larger motor issue that needs attention.
