NATO Supply Class 5977 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 59, which is dedicated to Electrical And Electronic Equipment Components.

Specifically, NATO Supply Class 5977 focuses on Electrical Contact Brushes And Electrodes. These components are used in various electrical and electronic equipment to establish and maintain electrical contact between moving parts.

Electrical contact brushes are typically made of conductive materials such as carbon or metal alloys, and they are designed to be in direct contact with other conductive surfaces. They are commonly used in applications such as motors, generators, switches, and connectors.

Electrodes, on the other hand, are used in various electrical systems for purposes such as grounding, welding, or measuring electrical signals. They can be made of different materials depending on the specific application, including metals, graphite, or specialized alloys.

NATO Supply Class 5977 includes a wide range of brushes and electrodes, each designed for specific electrical and electronic equipment requirements. These components are essential for ensuring reliable electrical connections and efficient operation of various systems.

When procuring electrical contact brushes and electrodes, it is important to consider factors such as the specific application, compatibility with the equipment, durability, and performance requirements.

What is an Electrical Contact Brush Holder Assembly? 169 Items
An Electrical Contact Brush Holder Assembly (HOLDER ASSEMBLY,ELECTRICAL CONTACT BRUSH) is an item consisting of two or more HOLDER, ELECTRICAL CONTACT BRUSH on a common mounting or mounted on each other, or one HOLDER, ELECTRICAL CONTACT BRUSH mounted on a bracket. May include facilities for applying pressure to the brush(es) and may also be furnished with the brush(es). For items consisting of two or more brush holders (boxes) cast as an inseparable unit, see HOLDER, ELECTRICAL CONTACT BRUSH. See also RING, HOLDER, ELECTRICAL BRUSH.
What is an Electrical Contact Brush? 955 Items
An Electrical Contact Brush (BRUSH,ELECTRICAL CONTACT) is an item specifically designed to be used in the transfer of electrical energy to or from another conducting surface. Either the brush or the surface is continually moving during the transfer of energy. The brush is usually composed in part of some form of the element carbon. Includes: (1) a single brush either with or without an attached shunt (flexible wire lead) and/or a helical or flat type pressure spring; (2) a split brush composed of two or more pieces (wafers), which are used in place of one brush usually connected together by individual shunts to a common terminal; (3) paired brushes composed of two identical or non-identical brushes connected together by a common shunt either with or without pressure springs or connected by individual shunts to a common terminal, or with pressure springs and connected to a common bar, bracket or the like either with or without individual shunts; (4) multiple brushes composed of more than two identical or non-identical brushes without pressure springs connected by individual shunts to a common terminal, or with pressure springs and connected to a common bar, bracket or the like by individual shunts. Does not include moving contacts which make and slide past stationary contacts, but are stationary while the circuit is conducting, such as the sliding contacts on a rheostat or the stationary contact on a synchro. Excludes: CONTACT, ELECTRICAL; and CONTACT ASSEMBLY, ELECTRICAL.
What is an Electrical Contact Ring Assembly? 104 Items
An Electrical Contact Ring Assembly (RING ASSEMBLY,ELECTRICAL CONTACT) is two or more electrical contact rings on a common mounting or mounted on each other. May include contacts, integral brushes, brush holder assemblies, and connectors.
What is an Electrical Contact Ring? 70 Items
An Electrical Contact Ring (RING,ELECTRICAL CONTACT) is an item consisting of a continuous electrically conductive material of circular or ring shape specifically designed to be used in conjunction with a contact brush to establish an electrical circuit between a rotating item and a stationary item. See also COMMUTATOR.
What is an Electrode? 42 Items
An Electrode is an item of electrically conductive material which acts as a terminal through which an electric current enters or leaves a liquid or gas. The item does not provide filler material or act as a lighting media. Excludes ELECTRODE, WELDING; ELECTRODE, CUTTING, TUBULAR and ELECTRODE, CARBON, LIGHTING.
What is an Electrical Contact Brush Holder? 325 Items
An Electrical Contact Brush Holder (HOLDER,ELECTRICAL CONTACT BRUSH) is a holder designed to accommodate and position a brush against a commutator or collector ring. Also includes items consisting of two or more brush holders (boxes) cast as an inseparable unit. May include facilities for applying pressure to the brush(es) and may also be furnished with the brush(es). See also HOLDER ASSEMBLY, ELECTRICAL CONTACT BRUSH.
What is an Electrical Contact Brush Set? 131 Items
An Electrical Contact Brush Set (BRUSH SET,ELECTRICAL CONTACT) is a combination of two or more brushes conforming to the item name BRUSH, ELECTRICAL CONTACT, used as a set in a specific piece of equipment. The individual brushes may be identical or nonidentical. For two or more brushes connected together by a common shunt, pressure bar, etc., see BRUSH, ELECTRICAL CONTACT.
