The Brake pump axle fork is a detached part of the manufacturer's original security (Original Freeline / Birel Art). This mechanical high-strength steel mechanical element ensures the direct and critical connection between your linkage (brake rod connected to the pedal) and the internal piston of your master cylinder (brake pump).

As illustrated on the reference image 12831.jpgThis part consists of a machined cylindrical portion that fits side pump and an openwork U-shaped clevis allowing the passage of the link link. Designed to endure repeated and extremely violent braking pressures, its original manufacture guarantees perfect bore tolerances for Eliminate any parasitic game in the pedal, offering the driver a specific feeling and an optimal dosage during the deceleration phases.

The cup (or lip seal) is a wear part. Its role is to transform the pressure exerted by your foot into hydraulic pressure into the pipes.

• Symptoms of fatigue: "Spongy" pedal (which goes down to the floor), liquid leakage at the bellows (cap), or braking loss during high heat phases.

• The material: These joints are EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene monomer) to withstand the brake fluid. NEVER USE STANDARD JOINTS Hardware stores, they will disguise in a few minutes in contact with the liquid.

On a 22SRR pump, you find O-rings at different locations (tank hose entrance, fill cap, sometimes as guiding joints).

The most important point: The material. The seals used in hydraulic braking must imperatively be in EPDM (ethylene-propylene).

• The danger: If you are using a "standard" O-ring (often in NBR / black nitrile bought in DIY store), it will swell, disintegrate and pollute your circuit in less than a few hours in contact with the Brake fluid DOT 4 /5.1.

Why is this spring critical?

Although it is a simple room, the internal spring of the 22SR pump filled a major safety function:

1. Return of the piston: It guarantees that the piston returns to the "rest" position after each braking. If the piston does not return completely, the circuit does not fulfill correctly by the tank, creating a soft pedal or braking that "drag" (drives that heat).

2. Maintaining pressure: It ensures a constant pre-load for the joints (cups) remain in place.

3. Reactivity: It allows the pedal to go back immediately as soon as you relax the foot.

On your 22SRR pump, the "pin" (pin or pivot axle) of 5x15mm is the piece that undergoes shear forces at each braking.

• Function: It serves as a hinge for the lever that operates the piston of the pump.

• Why a specific room? Unlike a metal rod cut at the right time, this pine is in Treated steel (tempered). If you are using a "soft" stem of hardware, it will dig and deform in a few tours, creating an important game in your pedal (the famous "blur" at the beginning of the race).

The 22SR EVO piston is a precision piece. Unlike appearances, it's not just a metal cylinder. It is machined with extremely low tolerances to allow the joints (cups) to slide without flee while generating a constant hydraulic pressure.

• The evolution "EVO": It guarantees a surface finish (polishing) optimized to reduce friction and increase the lifetime of the cups.

The tank is screwed into the body of the pump. Between these two rooms is an O-ring (O-Ring) or a sealing washer that does all the work.

• The role of fixing: Hold the tank integral with the pump while ensuring perfect sealing to prevent air from being sucked into the circuit during the pumping phase.

• Fragility: The tank threaded tip is often plastic. If you force too much, you risk breaking plastic in The body of the pump (very difficult to extract).
