The Wacker Neuson Carbon Brush is a genuine OEM component designed for EH 27 and EH 23 series electric demolition breakers, including the EH 27/115, EH 27/120 Low Vib, EH 27/127 Low Vib, EH 27/127, and EH 23/110/15. As a direct-source OEM part, the is manufactured to the same material grade and dimensional specification as the original, ensuring proper contact, correct current transfer, and consistent motor performance. This carbon brush is a direct drop-in replacement — no modification needed to install it in the supported EH series breakers. Keep a spare on hand; carbon brushes are a scheduled wear item and replacing them on time protects the armature from damage.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Carbon Compound — Formulated to the correct hardness and conductivity rating for the EH series motor, ensuring proper contact pressure and consistent current flow without accelerated commutator wear.
- Direct Brush-Slot Fit — Dimensioned to seat correctly in the brush holders of supported EH 27 and EH 23 breakers, allowing straightforward field replacement without filing or shimming.
- Broad EH Series Compatibility — Covers the EH 27/115, EH 27/120 Low Vib, EH 27/127 Low Vib, EH 27/127, and EH 23/110/15 electric breakers in a single part number.
- Protects the Armature — A worn or undersized brush causes arcing and heat buildup that scores the commutator; replacing the brush on schedule preserves the motor's most expensive internal component.
- Electrical Safety Compliance — Using the correct OEM-specified brush grade maintains the designed insulation and current-handling characteristics of the motor, supporting safe operation of mains-powered 110V and 115V breakers.
Carbon brushes are the primary current-carrying contact between the stationary wiring and the rotating armature inside an electric motor. They press against the commutator under spring tension, conducting electricity while the armature spins at high speed. As brushes wear down through normal use, contact pressure drops, causing intermittent power, visible sparking, and eventually motor failure. In a heavy-duty electric breaker like the EH 27 and EH 23 series, where the motor is working hard under continuous impact load, monitoring brush length and replacing brushes at the manufacturer's recommended interval is one of the most effective ways to extend motor life.
