2. Braided stainless steel brake lines - Wikipedia

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

   Braided stainless steel brake lines (also known as braided stainless steel brake hoses) are flexible hoses fitted to a hydraulic brake system. The intent of braided stainless steel brake lines is to improve brake system effectiveness and longevity as compared to an equivalent system fitted with flexible rubber hoses through near-elimination of hose expansion.

3. 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.

4. Bowden cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowden_cable

   A Bowden cable (/ ˈboʊdən / BOH-dən) [1] is a type of flexible cable used to transmit mechanical force or energy by the movement of an inner cable relative to a hollow outer cable housing. The housing is generally of composite construction, consisting of an inner lining, a longitudinally incompressible layer such as a helical winding or a ...

5. Banjo fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banjo_fitting

   A pair of banjo bolts as used in automotive braking. A banjo fitting is actually called a hose connecting bolt, or internally relieved bolt, and a spherical union for fluid transfer. It is typically used to connect a fluid line to a rigid, internally threaded hydraulic component. The bolt is assembled through the center of the union, usually ...

6. Power brakes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_brakes

   Power brakes consist of a system of hydraulics used to slow down or stop a motor vehicle. It uses a combination of mechanical components and vacuum assistance to multiply the pressure applied to the brake pedal by the driver into enough force to actuate the brakes and stop the vehicle. By contrast, manual brakes rely solely on the pressure the ...
