Carbon brushes for electrical machines

Carbon brushes manufactured by LEG Ltd.
Carbon brushes are special conductive parts of a current collector, which are used for current supply in collectors and collector rings of electric rotating machines.

Company LEG ltd. manufactures brushes of any size, production by Client’s individual order is also possible.

During existence of  LEG Ltd. company has created carbon brush materials for all modern areas of application. We think that our offered solutions are the most efficient in the majority of application areas in the world for today.

For convenience of consumers we offer the classification of carbon brushes materials according to basic conditions of brush movement but not according to the technology of production.  

Within scopes of the class carbon brushes differ in price and quality characteristics. That’s why every client of ours will be able to find the qualitative production for reasonable prices for any area of application.

Graphite and copper graphite brushes for electric motors: selection and technical characteristics

Brushes for electric motors are important components that provide reliable contact and transmission of electric current from the power source to the motor winding. They are used in various industrial sectors, including manufacturing, transportation, and energy.

Graphite brushes are known for their high resistance to friction and heat, making them ideal for use. They have excellent conductivity and durability, allowing them to work in various operating conditions.

Copper-graphite brushes combine the high conductivity of copper with the properties of graphite. This allows them to provide stable operation of the electric motor under high loads and temperatures.

When choosing brushes it is important to consider a number of factors, including the power of the electric motor, operating conditions, and reliability requirements. The availability of different types such as graphite, copper-graphite, and carbon-graphite, allows you to select the optimal option for a specific application.
