Hydraulic Brake Model
Product Code : SCL-PLE-11651
Quick Answer: The Hydraulic Brake Model links a transparent master cylinder, worked by a pedal or lever, through flexible tubing to a brake assembly with shoes or pads and a return spring, showing how fluid pressure carries the braking force.
Last updated: 18 October 2026
Key Features
- Master cylinder joined to a drum/disc brake assembly.
- Transparent acrylic cylinders show the fluid at work.
- Leak-proof flexible tubing with air-bleed facility.
- Foot-pedal or hand-lever operation.
- Brake shoes/pads with a return spring.
Technical Specifications
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| System | Master cylinder with drum/disc brake assembly |
| Cylinders | Transparent acrylic |
| Fluid line | Flexible tubing with air-bleed |
| Actuation | Foot pedal or hand lever |
| Brake parts | Brake shoes/pads with return spring |
How It Is Used
Pressing the pedal or lever pushes the master cylinder piston, and the pressure passes through the fluid to the brake cylinder, forcing the shoes or pads against the drum or disc. Releasing it lets the return spring pull them back. Students see force carried by an incompressible fluid, as in a vehicle brake.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Hydraulic Brake Model show?
How a force on the master cylinder is passed through incompressible fluid to the brake assembly, pressing the shoes or pads on, and how the return spring frees the brake when the pedal or lever is released.
