Suitable for MAN Trucks
The MAN 64511016001 is a brake cylinder, a critical component in hydraulic brake systems. It converts hydraulic pressure into mechanical force to engage the brakes, ensuring safe and reliable stopping power. This cylinder is commonly used in commercial vehicle brake systems. This brake cylinder is manufactured in Germany and offers exceptional durability and precise operation, contributing to consistent braking performance and reduced maintenance needs. Its dimensions are 210 x 210 x 230 mm.
Basically, it takes the pressure from your master cylinder – that’s what you push when you hit the brake pedal – and turns it into mechanical force to push the brake shoes or pads against the rotors or drums. It’s a hydraulic system, so it uses brake fluid to transfer that power. Each wheel usually has its own cylinder, or sometimes one will handle a pair of wheels.
Think of it as the muscle that actually does the stopping at each wheel. The master cylinder creates the pressure, but this is what gets the brake shoes or pads engaged. Without it, pressing the pedal won't really do much, except maybe waste your time. It’s part of the whole system working together.
Well, obviously, brakes are pretty important. If a cylinder fails, you’ll likely notice if you're having to push the pedal further down to get the same stopping power, or it might feel spongy. More seriously, it could lead to a complete loss of braking on that wheel, which is, well, not good. It acts like a shield against kinetic energy, and if that shield fails, you’ve got a problem. They do wear out over time with normal use, and leaks are a common issue. You can find replacements pretty easily, places like Fixparts Online have a good selection. It’s one of those things you really want to keep in good working order.
