General Electric 118V345P01 carbon brush

Part No. 118V345P01

OEM-style replacement carbon brush for General Electric DC motors and generators. Metal-graphite (Morgan grade 456, copper-graphite) wafer, 5/8" × 1-1/2" × 2-1/4" (15.9 × 38.1 × 57.2 mm), with a 5" flexible copper shunt; cross-references GE 118V345P01 and Repco REP391A.

Dimensions	- Width: 5/8" (15.9 mm) - Thickness: 1-1/2" (38.1 mm) - Length: 2-1/4" (57.2 mm) - Wafer size: 15.9
Application	Replacement carbon brush for General Electric DC motors and generator machines. Metal-graphite brushes are used where low contact drop and high current density are required — typically low-voltage, high-current commutator duty on GE brushed DC equipment.
Current Density	10–25 A/cm² (typical optimum range for the metal-graphite material group per IEC
Speed	Maximum peripheral speed ≤ 30 m/s (typical upper limit for the metal-graphite ma
Grade	Morgan grade 456
Connection	Flexible copper-braid shunt, 5" long, terminated with a spade/fork terminal for screw/bolted connection to the brush hol

Description

This General Electric 118V345P01 carbon brush (aftermarket reference Repco REP391A) is a direct replacement for GE brushed DC machines that specify a metal-graphite brush. The wafer is a pressed copper-graphite material (Morgan grade 456) — the copper content delivers high conductivity and a very low contact drop, while the graphite provides lubrication and stable filming on the commutator surface.

Features & benefits:

OEM-matched dimensions — 5/8" × 1-1/2" × 2-1/4" (15.9 × 38.1 × 57.2 mm) wafer, drop-in fit for holders sized for GE 118V345P01.
Metal-graphite material, Morgan grade 456 — high current-carrying capacity and low contact drop, ideal for low-voltage, high-current commutator duty.
5" flexible copper shunt — tinned braided lead with terminal, resists fatigue and keeps a stable connection to the brush box.
Cross-referenced part numbers — GE 118V345P01, Repco REP391A, Radwell 118V345P01-SUB.
Typical applications — GE DC motors and generators on low-voltage, high-current circuits.
Quality-inspected before dispatch: dimensional check, lead crimp integrity, and surface condition per batch.
