OVERVIEW

Genuine Lincoln Electric Replacement Parts

The Lincoln Electric Brush Assembly Retainer (M16157) is a critical OEM component designed to maintain the integrity of your welding machine's electrical generation system. When it comes to repairing high-performance equipment like Lincoln engine-driven welders, using genuine parts is non-negotiable for ensuring longevity and reliability. This retainer is engineered specifically to fit Lincoln assemblies, ensuring that the carbon brushes are held at the correct angle and pressure against the commutator.

At Josef Gas, we understand that equipment downtime translates directly to lost revenue. That is why we stock essential repair parts like the M16157. This retainer plays a vital role in the electrical transmission within your machine's generator or motor. Over time, heat, vibration, and mechanical stress can wear down or fatigue retaining clips. Replacing them with authentic Lincoln parts ensures that your machine continues to operate within factory specifications, providing the smooth arc and reliable power generation you expect from the brand.

Whether you are performing a routine tune-up or a major overhaul on an older SA-200 or a modern Ranger unit, inspecting the brush assembly is key. If the retainer is bent, loose, or corroded, it can lead to arcing, pitting of the commutator, and unstable welding current. Investing in this small but significant part can save you from much more expensive repairs down the line. Trust Josef Gas to provide the authentic Lincoln Electric components you need to keep your shop running efficiently.

Key Benefits:

  • Authenticity: Guaranteed OEM Lincoln Electric part.
  • Durability: Built to withstand the high thermal environments of welding generators.
  • Fitment: Precision engineering ensures a hassle-free installation.

FAQ

The M16157 holds the carbon brush securely in position within the brush holder, ensuring consistent contact with the commutator for proper power generation.

Yes, this is an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part from Lincoln Electric, ensuring exact fit and factory specifications.

If the retainer is bent, cracked, has lost its spring tension, or if the brush feels loose and wobbly inside the holder, the retainer should be replaced.

No, this part is specific to certain Lincoln Electric models. You should check your machine's parts manual to verify that part number M16157 is required.

No, this item is the retainer only. Carbon brushes are sold separately.

A bad retainer can cause the brush to lose contact with the commutator, leading to sparking, arcing, unstable welding arcs, and potentially expensive damage to the generator armature.

Installation generally requires accessing the brush assembly area of the welder. While not overly complex, it requires knowledge of electrical safety and machine disassembly.
