OVERVIEW

Restore Power to Your Walter Line-Mate III

The Walter 48M647 Brush Holder is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the Walter Line-Mate III (Model 30-A 268) linear finishing tool. In high-performance industrial power tools, the motor assembly is the heart of the operation, and the brush holder plays a vital role in transferring electricity to the spinning armature. Over time, heat, vibration, and continuous use can cause the brush holder to degrade, crack, or lose its spring tension, leading to poor electrical contact and reduced tool performance.

When a brush holder fails, you may notice symptoms such as intermittent power loss, excessive sparking inside the motor housing, or the tool failing to start altogether. Using this genuine OEM part ensures that your carbon brushes are held at the correct angle and pressure against the commutator. This precision is essential for preventing premature wear on the carbon brushes and avoiding costly damage to the motor's armature. As an original manufacturer part, the 48M647 guarantees a perfect fit within the tool's housing, eliminating the guesswork and modification often required with generic aftermarket spares.

Maintenance professionals and fabricators rely on the Line-Mate III for achieving consistent satin and brushed finishes on metal surfaces. Downtime caused by a faulty motor can halt production lines and delay projects. By keeping a replacement brush holder on hand or installing a new one at the first sign of trouble, you ensure your finishing tool remains reliable and safe to use. This component is constructed from high-quality, heat-resistant materials designed to withstand the demanding environment of industrial metalworking.

Installation involves accessing the motor housing of the Line-Mate III. We recommend inspecting both brush holders and the carbon brushes themselves during any repair to ensure the entire commutation system is in top condition. Trust only genuine Walter Surface Technologies parts to maintain the safety standards and performance specifications of your premium power tools.

FAQ

This brush holder is designed specifically for the Walter Line-Mate III (Model 30-A 268) linear finishing tool.

No, this is typically just the holder assembly. Carbon brushes are usually sold separately. Check your parts diagram to confirm if you also need the carbon brushes.

The tool's motor typically requires two brush holders. This product is sold as a single unit (1 per each), so you may need to order two if replacing both.

Common signs include the tool cutting out during use, excessive sparking visible through the vents, or physical damage to the holder such as melting or cracking found during inspection.

This is a genuine OEM part manufactured by Walter Surface Technologies, ensuring the exact fit and quality intended for your tool.

Yes, if you are comfortable performing tool maintenance. It involves opening the motor housing. However, for industrial safety, professional repair is often recommended.

A loose or damaged holder can cause the carbon brush to arc against the commutator, which can ruin the motor's armature, leading to a much more expensive repair.
