Sometimes the most challenging maintenance problems are solved by an innovative design solution. That’s the beauty of Cutsforth™ EASYchange® Removable Carbon Brush Holder—our unique solution to the challenges of brush changing on generators under load. With our removable brush holder system, you can easily reduce the risk of ring fires and forced outages, improve personnel safety, increase reliability, extend collector ring length of service, and reduce routine maintenance costs. The Cutsforth™ carbon brush holder replaces most cartridge, plug-in, and magazine-style brush rigging. In addition to making online brush changes safer and easier, our “pistol grip” holders prevent common brush and ring problems associated with most OEM style carbon holders. We have installed over 40,000 EASYchange® Removable Carbon Brush Holders in power-producing sites around the world.

While some units do require more extensive modifications, we are confident we can retrofit your unit and install EASYchange® during your next outage.
