Constructed from aluminum casting material, it offers corrosion resistance and durability under typical braking system conditions. The wheel cylinder measures 2.05 inches in length with an outside diameter of 1.21 inches and a bore diameter of 0.8125 inches, ensuring compatibility with the original brake assembly. It attaches securely using two bolted mounting holes and features a brake line inlet with an M10 x 1.0 thread size, matching factory brake line fittings. The included bleeder screw allows for proper brake fluid bleeding during installation or maintenance, although the bleeder screw cap is not included. This part is sold individually and does not come with mounting hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel cylinder is compatible with Smart Fortwo models requiring a drum brake wheel cylinder with the specified dimensions and thread sizes.
