OVERVIEW

Restore Optimal Motor Performance with Genuine Walter Parts

The Walter 48H394 Carbon Brush Set is a critical maintenance component designed specifically for Walter Surface Technologies' high-performance power tools, particularly the renowned Big 6 grinder series. Carbon brushes are the vital link in a universal motor, conducting electrical current between stationary wires and the rotating armature. Over time, friction and electrical arcing naturally wear these components down. Replacing them with genuine OEM parts like the 48H394 ensures that your equipment continues to operate within its original design specifications, maintaining torque, speed, and electrical efficiency.

Using non-OEM or ill-fitting brushes can lead to poor commutation, excessive sparking, and eventually, catastrophic damage to the motor's commutator. The Walter 48H394 set is engineered with a precise grade of carbon graphite that balances conductivity with durability. This specific composition minimizes wear on the copper commutator bars while providing a stable electrical connection even under the heavy loads typical of industrial grinding applications. Regular inspection and timely replacement of these brushes are essential protocols for any preventive maintenance program in an industrial setting.

Installation of the 48H394 set is straightforward, designed to fit seamlessly into the brush holders of compatible Walter tools. The set typically includes two brushes, as both should always be replaced simultaneously to ensure even wear and balanced motor performance. By maintaining your tools with genuine Walter parts, you protect your investment, reduce downtime caused by motor failure, and ensure the safety and reliability of your abrasive operations. Whether you are managing a tool crib or repairing a specific unit, this carbon brush set is the exact specification required to bring your Walter Big 6 grinder back to full operational status.

FAQ

This set is designed specifically for Walter Surface Technologies power tools, most notably the 'Big 6' series of grinders. Always check your tool's manual or parts diagram to confirm compatibility.

Common signs include intermittent motor operation, loss of power/torque, excessive sparking visible through the vents, or the tool failing to start altogether.

The 48H394 is a set, which typically includes two carbon brushes, enough to replace both brushes in one tool.

It is highly recommended to replace both brushes at the same time to ensure even wear and consistent electrical contact with the commutator.

Yes, this is a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part from Walter Surface Technologies, ensuring the correct specifications for your tool.

Installation is generally straightforward and can be done with a screwdriver. Most Walter grinders have accessible brush caps or housings for easy maintenance.

Running a tool with worn-out brushes can damage the armature's commutator, potentially leading to a much more expensive repair or the need to replace the entire tool.

They are made of a specific grade of carbon graphite designed to conduct electricity efficiently while withstanding the friction and heat of a high-speed motor.
