Wilwood High Volume Aluminum Master Cylinder

Universal Fitment

Part #: 260-6766

Overview

The Wilwood High Volume Aluminum Master Cylinder is a high-performance brake component designed for enthusiasts and professionals seeking reliable and efficient braking performance. Crafted from high-pressure die-cast aluminum, this master cylinder offers durability and lightweight strength, making it ideal for racing, custom builds, or upgraded braking systems. Its large fluid capacity and extended piston travel provide enhanced responsiveness and consistent brake feel, especially when paired with large piston calipers. The high-volume design ensures ample fluid supply, reducing the risk of brake fade during intense driving conditions and supporting optimal brake modulation and control. This master cylinder is suitable for a variety of high-performance applications where superior braking response and durability are critical. Whether you're building a race car or upgrading your vehicle's braking system for better performance, this component helps deliver precise pedal feel and reliable operation under demanding conditions.

Key Features

This high-volume aluminum master cylinder combines advanced engineering with practical design features to enhance your braking system:

• Constructed from high-grade aluminum for lightweight strength and corrosion resistance
• High fluid capacity of 8.2 ounces for improved brake response and reduced fade
• 1-7/16" piston travel for extra margin when used with large piston calipers
• Heavy-duty internal springs for fast retraction and consistent pedal feel
• Formed steel lids with bellows-type gaskets to ensure a secure seal and prevent fluid leaks
• Designed to support high-pressure brake systems and aggressive driving styles

Construction & Design

The master cylinder features a robust die-cast aluminum body that balances strength with weight savings. Its precision-machined internal components and formed steel lids with bellows gaskets ensure durability and leak-proof performance, even under high stress. The design emphasizes efficient fluid flow and heat dissipation, supporting consistent braking performance during extended use.

Driving Feel & Feedback

This master cylinder enhances brake pedal feel by providing a firm, responsive response with minimal pedal travel. Its large fluid capacity and internal spring design help maintain consistent pressure, giving the driver confident feedback and control during aggressive driving or racing conditions.

Installation & Fitment

Installation typically involves mounting the unit to the vehicle’s brake system and connecting the hydraulic lines. Compatibility should be verified against your specific vehicle and brake setup, but the design supports a wide range of applications requiring high-volume master cylinders.

What’s Included

The package includes the aluminum master cylinder, formed steel lids, bellows-type gaskets, and necessary mounting hardware to facilitate installation and ensure a secure, leak-free connection.
