Detailed Product Description

This brake master cylinder features a 1.000 inch (25.4 mm) straight bore diameter, which is critical for maintaining proper hydraulic pressure in the braking system. The cast iron construction of both the master cylinder and reservoir enhances strength and resistance to wear. The integral single reservoir design simplifies fluid containment and reduces potential leak points. With two mounting holes, the unit installs securely in the brake system. The master cylinder cap is included to protect the fluid reservoir, while the push rod and brake booster are not part of this assembly. The three ports accommodate brake lines with inverted flare fittings, sized 3/8"-24 for the primary outlet and 1/2"-20 for the secondary outlet, ensuring compatibility with standard brake line fittings.
