ABSTRACT:
A wheel cylinder piston made of powdered metal is provided with a through hole and a steel or powdered metal insert of hard metal received in and fills the hole. The hardened insert acts directly against a tang of the brake shoe, eliminating the need for reaction pins. The piston of the assembly is made in a die set having a through rod to define the hole, the piston green preform being sintered and sized before or after the insert is in place.
