The ProTeam 029-102988 carbon brush set is the replacement wear part that keeps your 802-watt ProTeam vacuum motor running strong. Built for facility maintenance techs, service departments, and janitorial managers who maintain their own equipment, this brush set restores reliable motor contact when your vacuum starts losing suction, running rough, or sparking. Swapping in fresh carbon brushes on schedule is one of the simplest ways to extend motor life and avoid a costly full-motor replacement.
Ideal For / Use Cases
- Preventive motor maintenance - replace worn carbon brushes before they damage the commutator.
- Restoring lost suction when a vacuum motor runs weak or intermittently.
- In-house equipment service for janitorial fleets that maintain their own machines.
- Keeping backup machines ready so a spare vacuum is always service-ready.
- Reducing downtime by stocking a common wear part on the shelf.
Carbon brushes are a normal wear item that gradually shorten with use. Replacing them as a matched set keeps electrical contact even and helps your ProTeam motor deliver consistent power over its service life.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a vacuum carbon brush set?
Carbon brushes are small conductive blocks that transfer electrical current to the spinning armature of the motor. They wear down over time and are designed to be replaced as a routine maintenance part.
Which motor does this set fit?
This set is the ProTeam carbon brush set for the 802-watt motor. If you are unsure which motor is in your vacuum, our team can help you confirm before you order.
How do I know when my carbon brushes need replacing?
Common signs include reduced suction, a motor that runs rough or intermittently, visible sparking, or a burning smell. Replacing worn brushes promptly helps protect the motor.
Should I replace both brushes at the same time?
Yes. Carbon brushes should be replaced as a matched set so both sides wear evenly and maintain consistent contact.
