Abstract

The piston of an hydraulic master cylinder is guided to slide in portions of a bore in a body on opposite sides of a port in the wall of the body by a guide portion of the piston which is disposed on the outermost side of the port and by a cylindrical, axially extending, guide part at the outer end of a radial flange on a retainer. The retainer is mounted on an extension at the inner end of the piston and forms an abutment for a return spring for the piston.
