OVERVIEW

Restore Your Metabo Grinder's Performance

The Metabo 316065460 Carbon Brush Set is an essential maintenance component designed specifically for the Metabo WE 15-150 Angle Grinder. As the primary electrical contact point between the power source and the spinning armature, carbon brushes are subject to constant friction and wear. Over time, worn brushes can lead to intermittent power, sparking, and reduced torque. Replacing them with genuine OEM parts is the best way to ensure your tool continues to deliver the heavy-duty performance Metabo is known for.

Auto-Stop Protection

One of the key features of this brush set is the auto-stop (cut-off) mechanism. Metabo engineers these brushes to automatically break the electrical circuit when the carbon wears down to a specific level. This safety feature prevents the metal brush holder from contacting the commutator, which would otherwise cause severe damage to the motor's armature. By using these specific brushes, you are protecting the most expensive part of your tool from catastrophic failure.

Genuine OEM Quality

While generic brushes exist, only genuine Metabo parts guarantee the correct carbon density and spring tension required for the WE 15-150. Incorrect carbon grades can cause excessive heat, rapid wear, or damage to the commutator surface. This set includes two brushes, providing a complete replacement for your grinder's motor. Regular inspection and replacement of carbon brushes are part of standard preventative maintenance for professional power tools.

Installation and Maintenance

Installing the 316065460 brush set is a straightforward process that can be performed in a standard workshop environment. It is recommended to replace both brushes simultaneously to ensure even wear and consistent electrical conductivity. Keep your Metabo grinder running at peak efficiency with these durable, high-performance replacement components.

FAQ

Common signs include intermittent power, the tool not starting, decreased performance/torque, or excessive sparking visible through the vents. If your Metabo grinder has auto-stop brushes, the tool will simply stop working when they are worn out.

Yes, the Metabo 316065460 part number includes a set of two carbon brushes, which is what is required to service one grinder.

These are specifically listed for the WE 15-150. While they may fit other models in the WE 15 series (like the WE 15-125), it is best to check your tool's parts diagram or manual to confirm compatibility before purchasing.

Auto-stop (or cut-off) brushes have a mechanism that breaks the electrical connection when the carbon wears down to a critical level. This prevents the metal brush holder from damaging the motor's commutator.

No, it is always recommended to replace both carbon brushes at the same time to ensure even wear and consistent motor performance.
