2. Braided stainless steel brake lines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braided_stainless_steel...

   The ideal hydraulic brake system would use only hard tubing such as galvanized or stainless steel pipe, as this would prevent any expansion along the hydraulic fluid path, providing the most direct transfer of operator input force to the friction surfaces, and in fact most of the length of a brake line is made of stainless steel.

3. Brake lining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_lining

   The brake lining is that part of the brake pad which actually contacts the metal brake disc (rotor) when the brake is engaged. Using a typical bicycle brake as an example, the backing would be the metal shell which provides mechanical support, and the lining would be the rubbery portion which contacts the rims when the brakes are applied.

4. Power brakes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_brakes

   Another type of power brake installed in automobiles is called the drum brake. This type of brake, in general, will create some friction that will slow down the wheel. In this type of brake there is a brake cylinder that connects master cylinder to the drum brake via brake lines that transfer pressure from the master cylinder.

5. Brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake

   A brake disc (or rotor in U.S. English), usually made of cast iron or ceramic, is connected to the wheel or the axle. To stop the wheel, friction material in the form of brake pads (mounted in a device called a brake caliper) is forced mechanically, hydraulically, pneumatically or electromagnetically against both sides of the disc. Friction ...

7. Bowden cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowden_cable

   Many light aircraft use a push/pull Bowden cable for the throttle control, and here it is normal for the inner element to be a solid wire, rather than a multi-strand cable. Usually, provision is made for adjusting the cable tension using an inline hollow bolt (often called a "barrel adjuster"), which lengthens or shortens the cable housing ...
