Abstract
The invention relates to a piston unit having a captive spring for a cylinder, particularly for a tandem master cylinder of a motor vehicle, wherein the spring, with a first end, is supported at least indirectly on a piston and, with a second end, is supported on a retaining device that can be displaced relative to the piston, and the movement of the retaining device relative to the piston is limited by securing means. The invention is characterized in that the securing means have a projection, which is mounted in a non-detachable manner on the piston and whose free end is provided with a stop that limits the movement of the retaining device relative to the piston.
