Brush 650916-01

If your DeWalt tool is running rough, losing power, or not starting at all, it might be time to replace the carbon brushes. These small but essential parts help power the motor and are one of the most commonly replaced components in power tools. This genuine DeWalt replacement brush is sold individually, and most tools will need two brushes—so it’s best to replace both at the same time, even if only one looks worn. Worn brushes can cause your tool to run intermittently, lose electric braking, or stop working altogether. You might notice signs like cracks, burn marks, or the brush being worn down near the wire. Replacing them is a simple fix that can bring your tool back to life. While you're at it, take a moment to inspect the motor’s armature for any damage. Always check your tool’s manual to make sure this part fits your model.
