2. Hydraulic brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_brake

   Hydraulic brake. A schematic illustrating the major components of a hydraulic disc brake system. A hydraulic brake is an arrangement of braking mechanism which uses brake fluid, typically containing glycol ethers or diethylene glycol, to transfer pressure from the controlling mechanism to the braking mechanism.

3. Master cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_cylinder

   Master cylinder. In automotive engineering, the master cylinder is a control device that converts force (commonly from a driver's foot) into hydraulic pressure. [1] This device controls slave cylinders located at the other end of the hydraulic brake system and/or the hydraulic clutch system. As piston (s) move along the bore of the master ...

4. Wheel cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_cylinder

   Wheel cylinder assembly Wheel cylinder child parts. A wheel cylinder is a component of a hydraulic drum brake system. [1] It is located in each wheel and is usually positioned at the top of the wheel, above the shoes. Its function is to exert force onto the shoes so as to bring them into contact with the drum and stop the vehicle with friction. [2]

5. Ford TowCommand - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_TowCommand

   With adjustable +/- trailer braking gain in a digital readout from 0.0 (no trailer brakes) to 10.0 (full trailer braking) in 0.5 increments and a manual override lever (to test trailer braking action), the Ford 'built into the dash' TBC provides smooth braking even when pulling up to a 15,000 lb 4-axle conventional (receiver mounted) or 26,000 ...

6. Trailer brake controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailer_brake_controller

   A brake controller is usually an original equipment manufacturer or aftermarket-installed device or module. It is mounted to the tow vehicle's driver's-side dashboard area, and engages a trailer's electrical braking system either time delayed, or in proportion to the tow vehicle's brake engagement when slowing down or coming to a halt. A brake ...

7. Sensotronic Brake Control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensotronic_Brake_Control

   Sensotronic Brake Control (SBC) is an electro- hydraulic brake system developed by Daimler and Bosch. In this system, the wheel brake cylinders of a vehicle are operated through a servomechanism, offering precise and responsive braking. The SBC system was first introduced on the R230 SL-class, which was released in Europe in October 2001.
