Brush Plate
Delco-Remy

The brush plate assembly houses the carbon brushes and the associated spring-loaded mechanism that maintains electrical contact between the stationary and rotating portions of the starter or alternator. This part ensures consistent current transfer to the rotating commutator, supporting smooth torque delivery and reliable charging or starting performance. The 12-volt class configuration reflects typical heavy-duty applications where high current switching is frequent. Materials and tolerances are designed to resist wear while maintaining steady contact under vibration and temperature variation common in commercial trucks. VMRS code 058-004-006 denotes its placement within brush-related components, and cross references help locate compatible brush plate configurations for refurbishment or replacement programs. Category context: critical wear parts for rotating electrical devices, prioritizing dependable contact pressure, reduced sparking, and extended service life in fleet operations.
