Product Name
Leister 100.066 Carbon Motor Brushes for Fusion
Brief Description
These are replacement carbon motor brushes specifically designed for Leister Fusion 1 extrusion welders. They are essential components that facilitate the transfer of electrical current within the welder's motor, ensuring its efficient and reliable operation.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Maintenance and repair of Leister Fusion 1 plastic extrusion welders.- Ensuring continuous and efficient operation of the welder's motor.- Replacement of worn-out brushes to prevent damage to the motor and maintain optimal performance.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Plastic Fabrication (for plastic welding, tank fabrication, pipe and tube welding, plastic repairs)- Construction/ Building Services (for waterproofing applications like landfills, ponds, reservoirs, and canals)- Marine (for boat construction and repair)- General Manufacturing (for various plastic welding applications, tank and container construction)- Industrial Supply (as a critical replacement part for industrial welding equipment)
Special and Unique Features
- Specifically engineered as a replacement part for Leister Fusion 1 extrusion welders.- Ensures reliable electrical current transfer between the stationary and rotating parts of the motor.- Manufactured from highly conductive materials, primarily carbon (graphite), capable of withstanding high temperatures and friction.- Designed to wear down over time, acting as a sacrificial component to protect the more expensive motor from damage.- Simple to replace, facilitating routine maintenance and extending the overall lifespan of the welding equipment.
Key Properties
- Material Composition: Primarily carbon (graphite), often combined with other conductive materials like copper.- Electrical Conductivity: Excellent, crucial for efficient current collection and transfer within the motor.- Thermal Conductivity: Good, to effectively manage heat generated during continuous operation.- Lubrication Performance: Possesses good lubricating properties to minimize friction and wear on the commutator.- Mechanical Strength: Sufficient to withstand the mechanical stresses of motor operation.- Wear Characteristics: Engineered for controlled wear, which is a protective feature for the motor's commutator.
Surface Compatibility
- Commutators and slip rings within the electric motors of Leister Fusion 1 extrusion welders.
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other compatible carbon brushes specifically designed for Leister Fusion 1 welders from authorized distributors or manufacturers. It is important to match the specifications (voltage, dimensions, material composition) for proper function.- Note: While the part number 100.066 is also associated with Leister Hot Jet S hot air guns, the primary application for this product, as per the description, is for the Fusion 1 Welder.
Comparison Note
These Leister carbon motor brushes are vital wear components, necessitating periodic replacement to maintain the optimal performance and extend the operational life of the Leister Fusion 1 extrusion welder. Their controlled wear characteristic is a deliberate design feature that safeguards more costly internal motor components. Utilizing genuine Leister parts or high-quality, precisely compatible alternatives is paramount for ensuring the welder's intended function and preventing premature motor failure or operational inefficiencies.
