Abstract
A brush holder assembly having a housing die cast from zinc which includes a plurality of integrally formed heat-sinking fins and an integrally formed mounting wall. The heat-sinking fins permit the housing of the brush holder assembly to dissipate heat generated during operation of a motor to which the brush holder assembly is secured. The integrally formed mounting wall enables the entire brush holder assembly to be quickly and easily secured to a housing of a motor. The heat-sinking fins further help to prolong the life of the brush housed within the brush holder assembly.
