Another important feature of drum brakes is the wheel cylinder, which is located at the top of the brake assembly. The wheel cylinder contains two pistons that move outwards when hydraulic fluid is pressed into the cylinder. This movement causes the brake shoes to expand and press against the drum. The design of the wheel cylinder is crucial, as it ensures even distribution of pressure on both brake shoes, promoting uniform wear and effective braking.

In contrast, drum brakes utilize a cylindrical drum that rotates with the wheel. When activated, brake shoes inside the drum expand against its inner surface, creating friction to slow the vehicle down. Drum brakes are generally more compact and cost-effective to manufacture, which is why they’re often found in the rear brakes of economy vehicles. However, they tend to perform less effectively in adverse weather conditions and can suffer from brake fade during prolonged use due to overheating.
