Rear Brake Cylinder Assembly
Mitsubishi FUSO®

The Rear Brake Cylinder Assembly, also known as the brake master cylinder, is a vital component of a commercial truck's braking system. It is responsible for converting the force applied to the brake pedal into hydraulic pressure that is then transmitted to the brake calipers or wheel cylinders. This pressure causes the brake pads or shoes to press against the rotor or drum, slowing down or stopping the vehicle. The Rear Brake Cylinder Assembly is made up of several parts, including the reservoir, piston, and seals. The reservoir holds the brake fluid, which is necessary for the system to function properly. The piston is responsible for creating the hydraulic pressure, while the seals prevent leaks and ensure that the pressure is maintained. If any of these components fail, it can result in a loss of braking power or even complete brake failure. Therefore, it is important to regularly inspect and maintain the Rear Brake Cylinder Assembly to ensure the safety and reliability of the commercial truck.
