    Study Notes

    Fuses in Brake Lines

    • Fuses, also known as safety valves, are crucial components in hydraulic brake systems.
    • They act as safeguards to prevent the complete loss of hydraulic fluid in case of a rupture in the brake lines.
    • Brake lines are often positioned in vulnerable areas, making them susceptible to damage.
    • The presence of fuses ensures that even if a brake line ruptures, the system retains sufficient fluid for at least partial braking functionality.
