Baldor BP5000P08 Carbon Brush is an electrographitic motor carbon brush designed for Baldor DC motor applications. It is widely identified as the replacement brush for the Baldor CDP3445 DCPM conveyor motor used in Gerber automatic cutting systems.
The BP5000P08 carbon brush features a compact rectangular profile with nominal dimensions of 5/16" × 5/8" × 1 1/8" (approximately 7.94 × 15.88 × 28.58 mm). The electrographitic brush material provides stable electrical contact and good wear characteristics for continuous motor operation.
This brush is cross-referenced with Gerber part number 238500025. Gerber's motor brush documentation identifies 238500025 as the brush for the 64171000 Baldor CDP3445 DCPM conveyor motor used on S/GT-32xx, S/GT-52xx and S/GT-72xx cutting systems.
The BP5000P08 is supplied as a spring-loaded brush assembly with a flexible shunt lead. It is suitable for replacement and maintenance of compatible Baldor motors where the original brush has reached its wear limit.
Typical applications include:
- Gerber automatic cutting machines
- Baldor CDP3445 DCPM conveyor motors
- Gerber GT5250 and GT7250 cutting systems
- Industrial DC motor maintenance and replacement
Important: Baldor currently lists BP5000P08 as a discontinued product. Before ordering, verify the original brush dimensions, motor model and connection configuration to ensure correct replacement.
