- Hi guys I created this video to try to answer the question of “how a copper wire is attached to the carbon brush” and “can you attach a copper wire back to the carbon brush” I hope this video will be useful to you guys. If you have questions or comments or suggestions please feel free to comment down below. Thanks!

If you mix some of the powder graphite into the epoxy, it should help the conductivity.
Thanks for the tip sir, I would love to try that
jake, thanks for taking the time to post this very, very helpful bit of research. i’m trying to help a sweet older lady in the neighborhood fix her very bizarre pottery wheel and this should/could do the trick! thank you again from atlanta, georgia 🎉🎉🎉
You're welcome sir, wow thank you for helping the lady sir. We need more gentlemen like you 😇
another very helpful tip from you sir jake ..more power and keep safe always...
Thank you Sir Noli 😇 God bless you and keep safe
This is a very good video on making motor brushes for the handyman. Instead of just using super glue how about a mix of super glue and carbon or graphite dust ??? I have had luck with this method years ago. Do not remember if the dust type or should I say hacksaw shaving mixed with the glue. For some reason the reaction with isocyanate adhesive made things hot you could smell it Jake. Did not fail when I tested the bond on brushes including heating part of the experiment. That is all I remember Sir.
Keep on making great videos fealla too.
Thanks Sir for the support and encouragement 😇 I would definitely try your suggestions Sir. Now I have two mixtures in mind yours and Sir Dave's
Thanks for presenting some alternatives.. I suck at soldering, so it was good to see that soldering just isn't a very good way to do this. Epoxy it is!
YEAH!!! make your own brushes.. this is awesome. this is exactly the kind of information i needed.
turned out the motor for my car aerial brushes are no longer available. this is a practical means to keep it running with original gear.
thank you very much for the research and posting your findings.
And thank you sir, glad to help in some ways 😇
Good information. Both videos related to making carbon brushes are good
Thanks sir 😊
Brilliant video mate, thank you sir
You're welcome and thank you sir 😇
Thanks for sharing your findings
You're welcome Sir
Gd job brother .nice work ✌️❤️
Thank you so much 😀
Awesome, thanks for sharing. - take care
Thank you sir
Thanks for the info
No problem 👍
Great video!!
Thank you sir 😊
You can also try phosphoric acid 85%. I use it to solder 18650 batteries with wires. But I am not sure how it will work with graphite.
Wow thanks for the info sir. Will try when i have the chance
How can I connect the wire of a brush to motor? My motor seems to be connected to the brush wire with sticky substance! Do you have any idea?
Thanks for sharing
You're welcome sir and thank you
Wow ❤ amazing
Salamats kang hehe
hey have you tried polishing or sanding off a coating of the wire ends before soldering it in ? also, maybe they also add a small metal tubing or something
Good day sir, nope I havent tried it yet. But thanks for the info, it may increase the conductivity and bond to the carbon
There is no need of graphite Powder in epoxy... because steel spring contact with carbon....carry the current 😊
I need to fix an abs pump for my Honda Fit/Jazz, due to age (2008), I couldn't find any carbon brushes... If I buy some good quality carbon brushes (ex.makita), could I attache the copper wires to each other instead of attaching the wire to the copper brush? Thank you.
You're welcome sir ☺️
❤❤❤
This is great. Can one solder the wire from the brush to the brass cartridge the carbon brush is housed in?
Good day sir, yes you can do that but it makes replacement a little bit difficult as you need to remove the solder before replacing the carbon brush
I don't know how it is actually done but maybe you place the wire in the hole and copper-plate using copper sulphate?
You mean sir that blue colored copper sulfate? I think it is used in pesticides
Correct, my friend except here in olde England we spell it copper sulphate. I really don't know the commercial process exactly but worth a try I would think. Best wishes!@@JakeMarvinVillegas
Sure sure i will try your suggestion good sir 😇
❤
thanks
You're welcome!
Hey I have a DC motor from an ABS module unit from a hybrid car. Do you know if any carbon brush is ok to use if I just grind it down to size and bond a correct sized copper wire to the brush? I tried it and it got toasted, but I think I did a bad job and the wire was too thin. Also this DC motor has 3 carbon brushes for some reason. Why is that?
Good day Sir, maybe the carbon brush is of low quality. Which part or what kind of carbon brush did you grind to size? Maybe its not good enough quality. Try buying carbon brushes from Makita and grind it to size. As for the 3 carbon brush on a dc motor I have yet to see one for myself so I cant help you on that 😞
@@JakeMarvinVillegas Ok I'll order the Makita brush and grind it down. The DC motor I have is from an ABS module.
Ok sir, btw sir have you checked if the rotor is in good condition?
@@JakeMarvinVillegas I don't know how to test it. I do have a bench power supply and a volt meter though. Going to try and test and see lol. What exactly am I looking for?
You can test it using a growler sir or through a multimeter by measuring the resistance. There are a lot of videos here in youtube on how to do that i hope your dc motor fix soon
Might try a metal repair paste
Definitely will try this sir
Hallo sir iam interesting how to make carbon bush I want a carbon bush sheet please tell me where iam going and where is available details tell me how iam oder send who is made
Good day sir, i have ordered it via shoppee sir online shop. Just search for graphite block
Hello sir. I just want to know what is the purpose of braided copper wire in the carbon brush.
Good day sir, para po mas conductive yong carbon pero pwedi namn yon wala
😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you sa support beb 😘
😲
Watch full video ,i decided buy a New one😂
Yes for convenience 🤣
How to biuld comutator?
Sorry Sir I cant do that for now
@@JakeMarvinVillegas can u just tell the idea
Sure, I will make a video animation Sir 😉
Just use a self tapping screw.
It might damage the commutator sir when the carbon brush wore out
@@JakeMarvinVillegas You shouldn't ever be running the Brushes that short. Usually the Mfgr lengths the brush wire to be short enough to stop the brush and cause a loss of contact with the commutator before the original brush wire nut buried inside the brush from coming in contact with the commutator. so just using a short screw which does not have to be self tapping or steel, it can be brass, copper or aluminum can be used safely in the back of the brush to retain the brush wire without hazard. You could also center drill the brush clear thru it's axis with a hole just big enough for the wire then crimp or solder a small shortened piece of uninsulated copper electrical connector for that wire size to one end and after counter boring the center axis hole thru maybe 3/4 of the way from the commutator side of the brush just big enough for the connector piece to slide in and bottom in the counter bored hole retaining it. You would have slightly less brush contact and slightly shorter brush life but it probably wouldn't matter that much especially if You didn't have access to epoxy. if you use to much epoxy you could drastically reduce the amount of electrical contact from wire to brush. But I could be wrong. All this is just crap I derived from reading stuff off the Bath Room Stall Walls in the Head at the Avionics Building while in a Marine Aviation Maintenance Unit.
Jb weld. Since it already has good conductivity. You just need it to stick and handle heat. The brushes won't get hot enough to affect the chemical weld
Yes Sir, even if its not epoxy as long as it can handle the heat from the commutator and carbon brush its good to go. By any chance do you have an adhesive in mind aside from super glue or epoxy Sir?
Just watched ur video, what a waste of time simply use a winding wire of appropriate swg drill and fix using aluminium dust mixed with epoxy resin,degsar if available in ur country goes best with epoxy.
Gracias...!!!
😇 thanks dir
