Carbon brushes are needed to conduct electricity to the armature through the commutator. The brushes are continuously rubbing against the rotating commutator, so will wear down over time, and will need to be replaced. If you are experiencing excessive sparks, this can also be caused by a damaged armature, so it is best to check it at the same time. This part includes two carbon brushes, which need to be replaced at the same time.
