Master Cylinder Pushrod

The Master Cylinder Pushrod (MPN 74-400) is a precision steel component engineered for the Tilton 74-Series master cylinders, widely trusted in high-performance automotive and motorsport brake systems. This pushrod serves as the critical mechanical link between the brake pedal and the master cylinder piston, directly controlling brake fluid pressure delivery to your stopping system. Whether you're rebuilding a performance brake circuit, replacing worn components after years of track use, or upgrading a vehicle's brake architecture, this pushrod ensures reliable pedal-to-caliper response.

Manufactured from hardened steel, the Master Cylinder Pushrod is designed to withstand repeated high-pressure cycles without deflection or wear, maintaining consistent brake feel and modulation lap after lap. The compact dimensions (2.85 x 0.5 x 4.1 inches) and lightweight profile (0.1 lbs) allow for clean integration into tight engine compartments and pedal box assemblies common in performance builds. Steel construction resists corrosion and provides the structural rigidity needed to transmit pedal input cleanly to the master cylinder bore, eliminating slack and ensuring immediate hydraulic response without lag or inconsistency.

This component is essential for mechanics and enthusiasts building or servicing Tilton 74-Series brake systems in race cars, high-performance street vehicles, and dedicated motorsport platforms. Proper pushrod installation ensures that brake pedal geometry translates directly to master cylinder piston travel, optimizing system balance and driver feel. Verify compatibility with your specific Tilton master cylinder model and pedal configuration before installation to ensure correct travel and clearance.
