The port in the master cylinder that access fluid return to the reservoir
Metering Valve
It maintain pressure on the rear brakes
Proportioning Valve
It puts more pressure to the front brakes and lowers down the pressure on the rear
Hygroscopic
brake fluid love water
Brake Bleeding
a procedure to get the air out of the brake lines or wheel cylinder
Elastic Limit
When the metal is forced to its limits and can't return to its original dimension or strength
Parallelism
A type of measurement to use when both motors are in perfect parallel to each other
Edge Codes
Represents the manufacturer, compound and coefficient of friction
Self-energizing action
It creates a wegging action that assist the brake shoes
Bearingized
A hard metal ball that push through a bore to get the nice finish
