COIL (6V), PVL, GERMANY
A 6-volt PVL ignition coil from Germany, built to the standard 40mm coil shape used on classic 6V British bikes.
This is a 6-volt ignition coil, PN 45275, cataloged as a PVL unit out of Germany. It fits the classic 40mm coil shape used across a wide range of British twins and singles from the 6-volt points ignition era, so if your bike's electrics are still 6V, this coil sits in that lineage.

A coil's job is straightforward: it takes the low voltage supplied by the points and condenser and steps it up to the voltage needed to fire the spark plug. This one is built to the same 40mm form factor as the coils Lucas ran on 6V machines, so it slots in wherever that shape and voltage were called for.
The part also shows up in our records under 99-0576 and 99.0576, so if your parts book or an old invoice lists it that way, it's the same coil. Worth double-checking your bike's voltage and coil mounting before ordering, since 6V and 12V coils aren't interchangeable.
