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