Since 1928, Helwig Carbon has been the American industry leader in the brush replacement market, as well as a supplier to many of the major OEMs of DC industrial equipment.

Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility also allows us to quickly produce custom brushes in a few days.

Our brushes can be custom engineered and manufactured to meet the requirements of your particular motor or generator. Finding the proper brush design for the operating conditions of your motor is the key to maximizing the life of the brush and contact surface.
