The Cutler Hammer-Eaton BU6-27-2 is a set of 3 pole replacement contacts designed to restore the switching performance and service life of compatible Cutler Hammer-Eaton contactors. When contact surfaces wear, pit, or burn due to repeated switching cycles, replacing the contacts is a cost-effective alternative to full contactor replacement — minimizing downtime and keeping electrical systems running efficiently.
Key Features
- 3 pole contact configuration for three-phase contactor applications
- Engineered as a direct replacement for compatible Cutler Hammer-Eaton contactor models
- Restores proper electrical contact and switching reliability
- Cost-effective maintenance solution versus full contactor replacement
- Manufactured to Cutler Hammer-Eaton quality standards for consistent performance
Applications
- HVAC motor starters and definite purpose contactors
- Commercial and industrial electrical control panels
- Compressor, fan, and pump motor switching applications
- Preventive and corrective maintenance programs
Why Replace Contacts?
Over time, contactor contacts experience wear from arcing and repeated make/break cycles. Worn contacts increase resistance, generate excess heat, and can cause unreliable operation or equipment failure. Replacing contacts with genuine Cutler Hammer-Eaton parts like the BU6-27-2 ensures a proper fit and restores the contactor to like-new switching performance without the cost of a full replacement unit.
