ARMATURE STARTER 6 VOLTS
WOA1568
Starter Armature 6 Volt
Rotor/armature for 6V starter motor
Replacement armature (rotor) for 6 volt starter motors. The armature is the rotating core component of the starter motor and carries the windings which, together with the field coil, generate the electromagnetic field for driving the engine. Suitable for rebuilding original starter motors.

Features
- Replacement armature for 6V starter motors
- For rebuilding and repairing starter motors
- Includes rotor with windings and commutator
- Suitable for standard 6V starter motors
- Complete with fitted windings
★ Essential component for rebuilding original 6 volt starter motors. When replacing the armature, the carbon brushes must also be checked.
Installation notes
When replacing, always check the condition of the carbon brushes, bearings and commutator. The armature must be able to rotate freely without rubbing. After fitting, test for short circuits between windings and earth using a test lamp or multimeter.
Compatibility
Note: armatures for 6V and 12V systems may differ in wire thickness and number of windings. Use this component only in combination with the correct 6V field windings. Not suitable for high-torque 12V starter motors without modification of the field coil.
Historical context
Original 6V starter motors for WWII jeeps were manufactured by Auto-Lite (MZ-4113) and Prestolite. The armature is one of the most heavily stressed components and can last tens of thousands of starting cycles with proper maintenance.
