Our new 1999 'face commutator' brush rocker, is specifically designed to meet  the 12Volt DC power tool market.
The one piece Bakelite moulded rocker unit has been replaced by 4 broached, gold anodised aluminium brush holder extrusions to AA20, riveted onto our high impact moulded class 'F' UL approved mounting plate.
This new construction provides greater accuracy for brush guide, creating better commutation and greater heat dissipation.
The variable pressure old type coil springs have been replaced with constant force saddle springs, greatly increasing brush life.
The carbon brushes have been integrated with the wiring connection leads.
