Hydraulic control designed to stop the rear wheels from locking up (rear wheels become "light" under heavy braking and therefore more likely to skid).
Tendency of a vehicle to pull to one side under braking.
Uneven or stutter-like force transmitted through the brake pedal during braking, usually caused by problems with disc rotors or linings.
Chamber connected to the master cylinder (usually by hoses) and used for storing hydraulic fluid.
The basis of a disc brake system: a round metal disc which rotates with the road wheel and, in order to generate braking power, is clamped by a calliper holding two friction linings (pads).
Rotors which are warped or out-of-true have excess "run-out", meaning the surface varies or wobbles as it rotates around a fixed point.
Property of a drum brake, whereby the braking force is increased by the braking action of the shoes against the drum.
