Abstract
The outboard brake lining is attached directly to the housing rather than to a brake shoe. The inboard line is received in the housing bore and brake fluid acts against a cap for a piston made of lining material, eliminating the conventional piston and inboard shoe. The cylinder is attached by integrally formed screw threads to the cast caliper body.
