Detailed Product Description

This brake master cylinder features a cast iron body that withstands the rigors of brake system pressure and heat. The plastic reservoir is removable, allowing for easier servicing and fluid replacement. The stepped bore design includes a primary bore diameter of 0.906 inches (23 mm) and a secondary bore diameter of 0.748 inches (19 mm), which helps regulate brake fluid flow between the primary and secondary circuits. The three ports are equipped with M10-1.00 bubble flare threads, ensuring secure and leak-resistant connections to the brake lines. Note that this part does not include mounting hardware, brake booster, reservoir, push rod, master cylinder cap, bleeder hoses, or mounting bracket, so these components must be sourced separately if needed.
