Wilwood Compact Tandem Master Cylinder - 1in Bore - (Black)

This is the Wilwood Compact Tandem Master Cylinder with a 1-inch bore, finished in black. It's a dual-outlet, integral-style master cylinder designed for custom brake system applications where space is tight. The die-cast aluminum body is well-built and features a compact design that makes it easier to fit into tight engine bays or custom chassis setups.

The tandem master cylinder design is crucial for safety, as it separates the front and rear brake circuits. If one circuit develops a leak or fails, the other circuit will still provide some braking power. This particular unit has a 1-inch bore diameter, which is a common size for many performance brake applications, offering a good balance of pedal feel and hydraulic force for a wide range of caliper piston sizes. The integral design means the reservoir is built directly into the master cylinder body, further saving space.

When planning your custom brake system, remember that master cylinder bore size, pedal ratio, and caliper piston area all work together to determine your brake pedal feel and stopping power. This Wilwood master cylinder is a popular choice for hot rods, muscle cars, and other custom builds where a reliable and compact braking component is needed.
