Milwaukee 22-18-1240 Brush Assembly Red

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 22-18-1240 is a replacement brush assembly finished in red, designed for use in compatible Milwaukee power tools. Carbon brushes are consumable internal components that transfer electrical current to the rotating armature in brushed motors. Over time, brushes wear down through normal use and must be replaced to maintain motor performance and prevent premature armature damage. This assembly is installed by electricians, tool repair technicians, and experienced tradespeople performing preventive maintenance or field repairs on Milwaukee power tools.

Replacement brush assemblies like the MILWAUKEE 22-18-1240 are used when a tool shows signs of reduced power, increased sparking, or motor cutout during operation. The red color coding may indicate a specific size or grade designation for fitment within the Milwaukee parts system. This part is intended for service and repair scenarios, not original equipment manufacturing.

Key Features

• Direct replacement brush assembly for compatible Milwaukee brushed-motor power tools
• Red color designation for identification within the Milwaukee brush parts system
• Consumable component designed for routine maintenance and motor repair
• Restores proper electrical contact between brush and armature when worn brushes are the cause of motor performance issues

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement brush assembly for compatible Milwaukee brushed-motor power tools. Verify fitment against the tool model number and service parts diagram before ordering.

Installation Notes

Brush replacement is typically performed by a qualified tool repair technician or licensed electrician. Always disconnect the tool from its power source or remove the battery pack before opening the brush cap or disassembling any motor housing. Inspect the commutator for wear or scoring while brushes are removed, as a damaged commutator will accelerate wear on new brushes. Refer to the Milwaukee service manual for the specific tool model to confirm correct brush seating and break-in procedure.
