Master Cylinder Kit Short 3/4in

The Wilwood Master Cylinder Kit Short 3/4in (Part No. 260-10372) is a compact hydraulic braking component engineered for brake system builds and upgrades where space constraints or integrated remote reservoir designs are priorities. The short 3/4-inch bore diameter with 1.120-inch stroke delivers precise brake modulation and pressure control in applications where a smaller master cylinder meets system requirements.

This kit features aluminum construction with black paint finish, offering weight savings and corrosion resistance suitable for high-performance brake applications. The design accommodates either direct reservoir mounting or remote reservoir configuration, providing flexibility during installation. The compact footprint—measuring 10.5 x 2.8 x 13.15 inches and weighing 1.74 lbs—makes this master cylinder ideal for custom brake layouts where engine bay real estate is limited or where undercarriage-mounted reservoir systems are preferred. The kit arrives complete and ready for integration into your brake system.

Wilwood master cylinders are specified for custom cars, street rods, off-road vehicles, and performance brake system builds where OEM components don't meet application requirements. The short stroke and bore combination suits scenarios requiring reduced fluid volume displacement or where system proportioning demands a smaller primary actuator. Buyers upgrading or building hydraulic brake systems should verify bore and stroke compatibility with their caliper sizes, brake line routing, and reservoir setup before finalizing installation.

When selecting a master cylinder for custom or restoration brake work, understanding stroke length and bore diameter ensures proper brake balance and pedal feel. The short 1.120-inch stroke in this unit generates higher hydraulic pressure rise per unit of pedal travel, requiring corresponding caliper piston area to avoid excessive pedal pressure. This specification makes the kit particularly useful in light-duty or moderate-performance applications where maintaining comfortable brake modulation alongside compact packaging is essential.
