Brake wheel cylinders and brake accumulators are critical components in any heavy truck braking system. They convert hydraulic or air-over-hydraulic pressure into mechanical force at the wheel end, helping your lorry stop safely even under full load. This category gathers tested used OEM wheel cylinders, brake actuators and accumulators removed from late-model European trucks.
If you are repairing drum brakes on a tractor unit, rigid, tipper or trailer, you can use this section to find the correct cylinder by matching OE numbers, axle position and vehicle details. All parts are sold as used OEM components, not pattern copies, so dimensions and threads match the original installation.
Our stock changes as we dismantle more vehicles, but typical items in the Brake Wheel Cylinders category include:
Most parts in this category come from Euro 5 and Euro 6 donor vehicles such as: DAF XF/XG/CF, MAN TGX/TGS, Volvo FH/FM, Mercedes-Benz Actros/Arocs/Atego, Scania R/S and Renault Trucks or Iveco models. We focus on dismantling modern long-haul and regional haulage trucks, so the specification of each cylinder is suitable for real-world fleet use in the UK and across Europe.
Where possible, product descriptions list OE and OEM numbers, axle position (front / rear, left / right) and basic dimensions, helping you cross-check compatibility with your existing part or service data.
Before dismantling, we aim to check brake operation on the running vehicle wherever possible. During dismantling, our technicians inspect each cylinder or accumulator for obvious damage, excessive corrosion or leakage. Only units that pass visual checks are cleaned, labelled and stored indoors ready for dispatch.
For more details on how we work, you can read our Dismantling & Quality Process page. This gives an overview of how we source trucks, test systems and document parts before listing them in the online shop.
We ship brake wheel cylinders and accumulators quickly from our UK warehouse, with tracked delivery options across the UK and EU. Most items qualify for a 30-day returns period, giving you time to confirm compatibility and fitment on the vehicle.
If you are rebuilding a complete brake circuit, you can also browse related categories: Brake Lines, Hoses & Fittings, Brake Calipers, Brake Chambers, Air Compressors and Air Dryers. This makes it easier to source all matching brake components for the same truck in one order.
