Disc grinder bit the dust... New brushes?

Hi guys...

I'm wondering where to look to buy some new brushes for my disc grinder. It is a pre-historic black and decker, strong as an ox sort.

Could you point me to where I can buy some? I don't mind doing some file work to get them to fit.

Thanks

 

Possibly Grainger? They have a huge selection of replacement motors and associated parts.

 

Find a Electric Motor Repair shop ,they will stock a good supply . Gasserman

 

Try a GOOD hardware store, "not Home Depot" they should have some.

 

napa carries some. get on google and punch in "black and decker service" that should bring up service locations in your area.

 

I recently went through the same thing with a power tool. Try these guys:Graphite Store: Carbon Brushes Tool Manufacturer • Black and Decker

 

Thanks guys

 

does your grinder look like mine?

if you end up buying a lot of brushes i'll buy some off you.

 

I get my brushes from a local builders merchant that has a repair shop.
They don't always have what I need, but I can generally solder bits together swap springs and sand stuff down 'till I get what I need.

 

I used brushes from a CS 130 GM alternater in my sawsall a few years ago and its still running fine. Any alternater repair shop should have something similar you can modify.

 

Jeeze Yorgatron, I haven't seen that model of Black & Decker in
thirty years! Talk about traditional!

My local Sears hardware store still has a decent selection of the littel trays with odds and ends. I noticed just yesterday that they had a tray with nothing but brushes of different shapes and sizes.

Any hardware store with Dreml supplies will stock brushes for a dreml. Allot of brushes are pretty standard, you might give them a look.
