ATE Brake Wheel Cylinder for Volkswagen Beetle and Karmann Ghia (1952–1958)

An ATE wheel cylinder for early drum-brake Volkswagen Beetle and Karmann Ghia models from 1952 to 1958. Inside each drum, the cylinder pushes the shoes against the drum when the pedal is pressed. A seeping cylinder contaminates the shoes, so replace any shoes that are soaked with fluid.

ATE dates to 1906, when Alfred Teves founded the company, and it supplies brake parts to automakers as well as to the aftermarket.

Warranty: 24 Months.
