ABSTRACT:
Because of its physical properties, mercury can be very effective as hydraulic fluid in a double-action piston and cylinder assembly mounted to float between opposed discs of a friction brake or clutch. The mercury is contained within a chamber of the piston-cylinder assembly and the high surface tension of the fluid prevents leakage.
