Detailed Product Description

This Centric Premium Brake Master Cylinder 130.42422 features a straight bore design with a 1.000 inch (25.4 mm) diameter, which is critical for maintaining proper brake fluid pressure and pedal feel. The aluminum cylinder body offers enhanced durability and corrosion resistance compared to standard cast iron options. The included plastic reservoir is a single, removable style that simplifies maintenance and fluid inspection. Both primary and secondary outlets have M12-1.00 inverted flare threads, compatible with OEM brake lines. While the master cylinder cap is included, mounting hardware, push rod, brake booster, and bleeder hoses are not part of this assembly, so these components must be sourced separately if needed.
