With our removable brush holder system, you can easily reduce the chance of forced outages, improve personnel safety, increase reliability, extend collector ring length of service and reduce routine maintenance costs. The Cutsforth carbon brush holder replaces most cartridge, plug-in, and magazine style brush rigging (see video example>>) . In addition to making online brush changes safer and easier, our “pistol grip” holders prevent common brush and ring problems associated with most OEM style carbon holders. We now have nearly 16,000 EASYchange® Removable Carbon Brush Holders installed in plants across the U.S. (see map>>
