Carbon Brushes: 6.5x8x11.5mm (Part No. 596071-00) for B&D Angle Grinders (CD105, CD110, CD115, KG900)

1. Product Identification

• Type: Replacement carbon brushes (consumable motor components).

• Dimensions: 6.5mm × 8mm × 11.5mm (width × thickness × length), ensuring a precise fit in compatible brush holders.

• Part Number: 596071-00 (unique identifier for verifying compatibility with specific tools).

2. Compatibility

• CD105

• CD110

• CD115

• KG900

• Designed exclusively for Black & Decker (B&D) angle grinders, including models:

3. Core Function

• Transmits electrical current from the angle grinder’s power source to the motor’s rotating rotor via contact with the commutator.

• Acts as a wear-resistant buffer, protecting the commutator (a critical motor part) from excessive damage during operation.

4. Key Details

• Material: Typically graphite-based (may contain small amounts of copper for enhanced conductivity).

• Replacement Trigger: Needs replacement when worn to ~50% of original length (e.g., from 11.5mm to <6mm), or when the grinder shows signs like excessive sparking, reduced power, or intermittent operation.

5. Importance

• Ensures smooth motor operation, directly impacting the angle grinder’s performance (e.g., grinding/cutting efficiency).

• Using the correct part (596071-00) prevents misalignment or electrical issues, extending the tool’s lifespan.
