Although it is a simple room, the internal spring of the 22SR pump filled a major safety function:
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).
Maintaining pressure: It ensures a constant pre-load for the joints (cups) remain in place.
Reactivity: It allows the pedal to go back immediately as soon as you relax the foot.
| Feature | Specification |
| Mark | Birelart (original parts) |
| Compatibility | 22SR / 22SRR / CL pump |
| Material | High resistance spring steel (tempered) |
| Function | Piston reminder |
| State | Must be perfectly cylindrical and without oxidation |
Unlike the joints, the spring is simple to ride, but there are rules to prevent it from being laid.
Inspection: Before reassemble, check that there are no traces of rust (oxidation). If the spring is stung by rust, change it. The rust is abrasive: it will create iron filings in your brake fluid, which will destroy your new joints in a few tours.
Positioning: The spring is inserted into the bottom of the body of the pump and fits on the base of the piston. Make sure it is well centered and that it does not "scratch" against the internal walls of the aluminum cylinder during compression.
Do not stretch: DO NEVER on a spring to give him back from force. A stretched spring is a weakened spring that will break prematurely. If it is soft, it is at the end of life: Replace it.
"Often, the pilots complain about a 'heavy' or slow brake pedal. They accuse the stirrups or purge. The trick: Most of the time, it is this spring that has lost its strength with time and heat. My Pro Council: When you redo your pump with the seal kit (cups), replace systematically This spring by a new one. It is a piece at a few euros that avoids having a pedal that seems 'gummy'. The difference of feeling at the foot is flagrant on a competition kart. "
Q: Can we use a "home" substitution spring?
A: Absolutely not. Tare (the spring force) is calculated by Birelart to overcome the friction of the cups and ensure a quick return. A spring too soft will make the braking hazardous, a spring too hard will prevent the piston from doing all its run.
Q: Why did my spring become brown / black?
A: It is the sign of oxidation due to water in the brake fluid (the liquid has aged). If your spring is colored, it is that your liquid was too old and probably corroded the inside of your pump. Check the condition of the bore!
Q: Is the spring identical on all Birelart pump models?
A: No, there are variants of length and stiffness. Always use the reference corresponding to your model (22SR or 22SRR) to ensure compatibility.
In your Birelart brake pump, this ring is the main pivot point between the control lever and the thrust rod. Its function is twofold:
Eliminate the game: It allows a "fat" movement without sidebeat. Without it, your brake pedal will have an unpleasant dead race ("blur" effect).
Self-lubrication: Generally composed of sintered bronze impregnated with oil, it is designed to operate "dry" or with a minimum of lubricant, thus preventing the premature wear of the steel pivot axis against the aluminum of the lever
The 22SR pump cover fills three critical functions:
Protection against contaminants: The brake fluid (dot 4 or 5.1) is hygroscopic (it absorbs the moisture of the air). The lid, associated with its internal membrane, prevents water from polluting the fluid.
Level maintaining: It secures the tank against projections during major vibrations of the kart.
Management of depression: The internal membrane (often associated with the lid) allows the level of liquid to decrease as the platelet wear without creating a vacuum of air in the tank.
This cap (or bellows) is not just a piece of rubber. He plays a crucial role:
Anti-contaminant barrier: It prevents track dust, sand and water to enter the body of the pump.
Protection of the axis: If dirt enter here, they mix with fat, creating an abrasive paste that will scratch the piston and destroy your internal seals.
Maintaining the lubricant: It keeps the clean fat inside the mechanism of the thrust rod.
The Revision kit for diameter brake pump 19 mm is a complete set of original repackaging (Original Freeline Racing Parts). It is essential for restoring absolute sealing, hydraulic pressure and reactivity of your rear brake master cylinder or 19 mm.
As shown in detail the reference photo 12856.jpgThis all-in-one kit brings together all the hardware and internal wear parts necessary for professional refurbishment. Rather than replacing a complete master cylinder, this package of factory parts allows you to eliminate pressure losses, liquid leaks at the pedal and the phenomenon of "spongy pedal" that spoil your chronos on the track.
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 cap is not just a lid. It fulfills three essential missions for safety:
Sealing: It prevents the brake fluid (corrosive) from escaping, especially during high track vibrations.
Protection: It isolates the brake fluid (which is hygroscopic, that is to say it absorbs moisture) from the ambient air. Water in the liquid is the enemy n ° 1 of the braking (risk of vapor lock / air bubbles).
Pressure compensation: Most Birelart plugs incorporate a free launching system (or via a membrane) that allows the level of liquid to drop when the pads wear away without creating a vacuum of air in the tank.
The Circlip Birelart is a critical safety piece for your braking system. Its role is to lock the axis that crosses the brake pads inside the stirrup. Without it, the intense vibrations of karting could slide the axis, resulting in the loss of the pads and a total braking failure.
Made of high quality spring steel, this "wire" circlip has a calibrated voltage to stay lodged in the throat of the axis, even under the most severe constraints encountered in competition.
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.

The model Flat Out 330 High Grip is distinguished by its slightly more compact diameter (330 mm instead of 340 mm) and its technical coating designed to provide maximum friction with racing gloves.
High Grip Technology: The specific coating (textured polyurethane or high density alcantara in serial) makes it possible to maintain a firm socket with less physical stress, thus reducing the cramps and the fatigue on the long sleeves.
Diameter 330 mm: This shorter format offers a brighter and more direct direction, preferred by KZ drivers (gearbox) or those seeking instant reactivity.
Ergonomic structure: Profiled branches for quick access to pallets (clutch or steering wheel brake) and a clear reading of the instrumentation.
The CRG Kt2 is the versatile chassis par excellence of the Italian manufacturer. Unlike the Rébec Road (more rigid), the KT2 uses a frame compound full of tubes of 30 mm in diameter. This architecture offers controlled flexibility, ideal for freeing the engine in categories without gearbox like the OK, Iame X30 or the Rotax Max.
Its geometry allows fast adaptation to all track conditions (high grip or green track "). Featuring the last components of the range CRG RacingHe combines exceptional motor skills at a surgical front train accuracy.
The CRG KT2 2026 Version Kz redefines the standards of the Queen category. While the Road Rebel (32mm) remains the choice for the tracks with very high grip, the KT2 in 30mm Has become the favorite weapon of Kz pilots looking for more agility and ease in the support changes.
For 2026, CRG Reworked the composition of chrome-molybdenum steel to provide a better response from the front train during degressive braking. This KZ version stands out for its localized structural reinforcements and its integral front / rear braking system, essential to stop the power of 50 horsepower engines
