ARMATURE

Creepage Band Replacement

Because of its superior adhesion qualities, the Teflon

creepage band on the outer end of the commutator
should be applied using the “hot bond” process. A copy
of this process is included in each Teflon Band Kit, Part
No. 76518, which can be ordered from the following ad-
dress:

General Electric Company
Insulating Materials Product Section
One Campbell Road
Schenectady, NY 12345
Attn: Customer Service

NOTE: The Teflon band is not included in the
kit, but can be ordered through normal Renewal
Parts channels.

Inspect the Band

1.

There should be no gaps at the joint or between
the edge of the Teflon band and the copper bars.

2.

The band surface must be smooth, free of var-
nish and bonded to the underlay material. There
must not be any bubbles under the Teflon or
buckling of the band.

3.

The surface must be free of damage including
scratches and cuts.

Rewinding Armature

The armature must be rewound if any coils are

shorted or grounded.

Riser Width

During the rewinding procedure, the TIG welds on

the commutator risers are machined to break the arma-
ture coil connections. Machining reduces the width of
the risers 1/32 to 1/16 in. each time, which in turn de-
creases the current–carrying capacity of the risers.

If the calculated width of the risers (after machining)

will be less than the Minimum Permissible Riser Width
listed in the DATA section, a new commutator must be
installed before new armature coils are assembled.

Refer to the DATA section for the Minimum Permissi-

brush–surface diameter will be less than the minimum
permissible diameter after resurfacing operations are
performed, replace the commutator before the new ar-
mature coils are assembled.
