Carbon Brushes Price in Kenya (2026): Bosch Carbon Brushes, Drill Switches and Motors

Most power tools that "just stopped" need a small part, not a new machine. Worn carbon brushes, a faulty switch or a burnt motor are the usual causes. This guide lists spare parts on Buy More Mall and how to find which one you need.

Bosch part numbers (for example 1604321174 or 2610920682) are printed in the product names. Match the number or the tool model before ordering.

What Do Carbon Brushes Do?

Carbon brushes carry electric current to the spinning part of a brushed motor (the armature). They wear down slowly with use, which is why they are made to be replaced.

How to Test Carbon Brushes

1. Unplug the tool (or remove the battery).
2. Open the brush caps or the housing and pull the brushes out.
3. Check the length: replace them when they reach the wear mark or are much shorter than a new brush.
4. Look for chips, cracks or burn marks, and check that the springs still push the brushes firmly.
5. Always replace both brushes together.

Drill Switch Price and Replacement

If the tool does not start, runs at one speed only, or cuts out when you press the trigger, the switch is a common cause.

Replacement Motors for Bosch Cordless Tools

Check the tool model numbers listed in each product name (for example GSR 120-LI, GDR 120-LI, GSR 18V-190) before ordering.
