Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is included in the TC EMDL-1118 brush set?
A: The TC EMDL-1118 is a complete brush set designed for electric lift truck traction motor assemblies. Contact us with your equipment model and motor serial number to confirm the exact brush configuration (brush count, thickness, and lead wire specifications) for your unit.
Q: Which electric lift truck motors are compatible with the TC EMDL-1118?
A: The TC EMDL-1118 brush set is compatible with electric lift truck motors from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, Linde, Clark, Mitsubishi, CAT, and BT. Verify motor part numbers and brush cavity dimensions match before ordering. Contact us with your equipment details for cross-reference confirmation.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of brushes before replacement is necessary?
A: Brush wear depends on motor usage intensity and operating hours. In typical warehouse duty cycles, brushes require replacement every 1,000 to 2,000 operating hours. Higher-duty applications (frequent start/stop cycles, heavy loads) may require replacement at 800-1,200 hours. Inspect brushes quarterly for wear patterns and replace the complete set when any brush wears to 60 percent of original thickness to prevent commutator damage.
Q: Are brush sets available as individual components or only complete sets?
A: The TC EMDL-1118 is sold as a complete brush set. Brushes should always be replaced as a matched set to ensure uniform contact pressure, minimize brush chattering, and prevent accelerated wear on the motor commutator. Mixing new and worn brushes can cause performance degradation and reduce motor lifespan.
