Centric Premium Brake Master Cylinders Product Line

The Centric Premium Brake Master Cylinders line focuses on delivering high-quality brake hydraulics with precise fitment and durable materials. This product line emphasizes cast iron construction and integral reservoir designs to meet or exceed OEM specifications. The 130.61015 model exemplifies these standards, providing a direct replacement for brake master cylinders in various Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles.

Detailed Product Description

This brake master cylinder features a cast iron body and reservoir, offering robust resistance to wear and corrosion. The single integral reservoir design simplifies installation and maintenance. With a straight bore measuring 1.000 inch (25.4 mm), it supports consistent hydraulic pressure for effective braking. The unit includes a master cylinder cap but does not come with mounting hardware, push rod, brake booster, or bleeder hoses, so these components must be sourced separately if needed. The two mounting holes ensure a secure fit, while the primary and secondary outlet ports use inverted flare threads sized 9/16"-18 and 1/2"-20 respectively, matching OEM thread specifications.
