The Husqvarna 579499101 Carbon Brush is a genuine OEM replacement designed for the DC1400 dust collector. This component is sourced directly from Husqvarna, ensuring the correct grade, geometry, and contact surface to match the original motor specification. DHS Equipment supplies this part to help keep your dust collection equipment running at full capacity.
Key Features
- OEM Carbon Grade Match — manufactured to Husqvarna's original carbon compound specification, delivering the correct conductivity and wear rate for the DC1400 motor commutator.
- Exact Dimensional Fit — matches the original brush profile, allowing direct installation into the existing brush holders without modification to the housing or spring assembly.
- DC1400 Dust Collector Compatibility — confirmed fitment for the DC1400 dust collector, a high-capacity unit built for demanding construction and surface preparation environments.
- Restored Motor Contact Performance — a worn or failed carbon brush causes arcing, power loss, and motor damage; replacing it with a correctly rated brush restores clean electrical contact and full motor output.
- Electrical Safety Compliance — using the correct OEM brush grade prevents overheating at the commutator interface, reducing the risk of insulation damage and unplanned motor failure on the jobsite.
A carbon brush is a sliding electrical contact that transfers current between the stationary wiring and the rotating commutator inside the motor. As the brush makes continuous contact with the spinning commutator, it gradually wears down over time. When a brush wears too short or breaks, electrical contact becomes intermittent — causing the motor to lose power, run erratically, or stop altogether. Replacing the Carbon Brush with the correct OEM part restores full current transfer and protects the commutator surface from the damage that a degraded brush can cause.
