About This Product
The model shows Pascal’s law at work: pressure applied at the master cylinder passes through the fluid to all four wheel cylinders. Students can relate input force to output pressure, see how air bubbles affect the circuit and follow the bleeding procedure used on vehicles.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many wheel cylinders does the Hydraulic Brake Model have?
Four wheel cylinders, fed from one master cylinder through transparent tubing, so the spread of pressure across the circuit can be seen.
