  • 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.

    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.

    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

    • @JakeMarvinVillegas
      @JakeMarvinVillegas  ปีที่แล้ว

      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?

  • @edrisi9306

    This is great. Can one solder the wire from the brush to the brass cartridge the carbon brush is housed in?

    • @JakeMarvinVillegas
      @JakeMarvinVillegas  ปีที่แล้ว

      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

    • @alessandroandrenacci2372
      @alessandroandrenacci2372 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Very interesting ... in my little experience of diy electroplating, copper from it's sulphate will not be coated on graphite unless other chemicals added ( or just a bit ), but instead into copper itself, so it should fill ( ? ) the bore inside the brush and outside the piece of copper cable. What i suggest is to get the isolant sleeve ahead till the brush ... so all the copper will get into the bore ( ? ).
      A better idea would be to enlarge a bit the deepest part of the bore itself, so some more copper would force the tip of the cable agains the carbon brush ...

      I wonder if it is to stop the brush working when it gets too small. this way the brush does not disintegrate in use when it gets real small and smashes itself up as it is jammed against the spinning commutator

    Just use a self tapping screw.

    • @JakeMarvinVillegas
      @JakeMarvinVillegas  ปีที่แล้ว

      It might damage the commutator sir when the carbon brush wore out

    • @ccfmfg
      @ccfmfg ปีที่แล้ว

      @@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.
