I got the end off the back of the motor.

The commutator is on the opposite end of the drive non-shaft.

It has 6 pairs of brushes. The area the brushes touch the commutator is about an inch and a quarter to an inch and a half.

All the brushes are on a little bit of an angle.

The shiney bit on the end is a bearing.





Any comments on this motor?
