Product Details

Metelli’s New Master Cylinder line focuses on replacement hydraulic brake components for service work that requires accurate fit and dependable port sizing. This 05-0048 master cylinder uses a cast iron body and dual outlet configuration, with M10 x 1.0 forward and rearward outlets, to match the brake plumbing used on listed Volvo applications. It is a direct replacement choice for Volvo 240 brake master cylinder service and for Volvo DL and GLE master cylinder replacement needs.

This part cross-references FEL-PRO 1818 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

  • Brake pedal travel that has increased due to master cylinder wear
  • External fluid leakage at the master cylinder body or outlet area
  • Loss of hydraulic pressure in the brake system
  • Soft or inconsistent brake pedal response
  • Service replacement for a worn Volvo 240, DL, or GLE master cylinder

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bore diameter, outlet thread size, and reservoir configuration before installation. Because no reservoir is included, transfer or source the correct reservoir arrangement for the vehicle as needed. After installation, bleed the brake system thoroughly and inspect all outlet connections for leaks. Confirm fitment against the vehicle’s brake plumbing and mounting points before final assembly.

Quality Assurance

Metelli supplies this brake master cylinder as a new replacement component for listed Volvo applications. The cast iron housing and specified outlet sizing support accurate service replacement for brake hydraulic repairs.
