Another important part of the brake drum assembly is the wheel cylinder. Located within the drum, the wheel cylinder is responsible for applying hydraulic pressure to the brake shoes. It consists of two pistons housed within a cylinder. When the brake pedal is pressed, brake fluid flows into the wheel cylinder, pushing the pistons outward and forcing the brake shoes against the drum. This hydraulic mechanism is crucial for delivering consistent and powerful braking force.

The adjuster mechanism is responsible for compensating for the wear of the brake shoes. As the shoes wear down, the adjuster moves them closer to the drum to maintain optimal clearance and ensure consistent braking performance. Most modern drum brake assemblies have an automatic adjuster that self-adjusts each time the brakes are applied.
