This brush retainer is part of the starter motor on many types of lawn and garden machinery. It comes with both the retainer and a set of four brushes. The main job of the brush retainer is to hold a set of carbon brushes against the commutator bars located on the armature. If the brush retainer is worn, damaged, or improperly seated, it can cause problems with the equipment.

A damaged brush retainer can wear down to the wire lead and become burned, pitted, or cracked. When the brush retainer is worn out, it can decrease engine performance, reduce braking, and cause the motor to lose power. This brush retainer is an authentic OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold as an individual part. The retainer is made to be used with lawnmowers, snowblowers, tillers, and wood chippers created by Briggs & Stratton, Craftsman, Toro, Cub Cadet, Lawn-Boy, Snapper, MTD, and Simplicity.
