Thread: Brushes to suit GMC circular saw

G'Day & Welcome to a top forum Cam,
If you can't find anything local in Brisbane area,
I know of a company in sydney who make brushes to sample.
Let us know how you go and if you'd like the Sydney supplier info.
Cheers, Crowie

No, BUT, if you got to a power tool repairer, or even a power tool retailer, you can ask if they have any that are a close fit. The most important part is the lenght of the "tail" and the spring, and of course the diameter of the spring. Provided what you get is only a bit over sized, you can easily make them a good fit by laying them on a flat surface over some fine sandpaper and rub them down to size. I have successfully done this on more than one occasion.
