23.81mm(15/16")Internal Diameter (Bore Size) Wheel Cylinder

VW Front Wheel Cylinders are bolted to the backing plate inside the front brake drum and connect to the master cylinder with hydraulic hoses and brake lines. The wheel cylinders use hydraulic pressure to push the brake shoes into the brake drums through pistons inside the cylinders to stop the brake drum from spinning. The Front Wheel Cylinder fits 1971 through 1979 Super Beetles. Also fits 1967-74 Type 3 rear. The wheel cylinders are made in Germany, sold individually and fit the left or right side.

Brake components (like most things nowadays) are made around the world, by various manufacturers. A German brake component comes from a German manufacturing company that may have numerous factories around the globe. Regardless of where the part is made, if it is labeled as a German part, it comes from a German company that has manufactured that component at a facility that is owned by them, and it is made to their high standards of quality and fitment.
