The Wheel Cylinder is a component of a brake system, typically found in drum brakes. It is a cylindrical device that houses a piston and two rubber seals. When the brake pedal is pressed, the piston is forced outward, pushing the brake shoes against the drum, creating friction and slowing the vehicle. The wheel cylinder is an important part of the braking system, as it is responsible for providing the necessary pressure to the brake shoes. The wheel cylinder market is a subset of the brake systems and components market. It is a highly competitive market, with a wide range of products available from various manufacturers. The market is driven by the need for reliable and efficient braking systems, as well as the increasing demand for safety features in vehicles.
