The HC3 Goes Black!
The overall performance of the HC3 exceeds even the highest requirements. Ideal for discreet conversions, this MAGURA top model is now also available in black. The professional quality remains pristine, so the HC3 continues to meet the highest demands in terms of ergonomics, performance and weight.
High-quality aluminum was used as the basic construction material. The master cylinder is made entirely of solid aluminum - and it is the production process that gives this ABS-compatible component its extremely high level of rigidity and ultra-light weight.
Features:
- For superbikes, supermotos and road sports specialists.
- CNC-machined aluminum housing.
- 90 radial design.
- Three-way adjustable lever bearing point.
- Folding lever.
- Advanced Seal Technology.
- Reservoir kit.
- Titanium fixing screws.
- ABS-compatible.
90 Radial Design - The push rod and the cylinder and rod lie at a 90 angle to the handlebars. This results in lower transmission losses and a more direct brake feel for better control.
HCT (Hard Core Technology) - The HCT design diminishes internal friction, emphatically improving brake and clutch performance, especially with ABS systems.
Three-Way Adjustable Lever Bearing Point - Thanks to its adjustable lever bearing design, the HC3 master cylinder offers you the option of making hand lever operation feel harder or softer by simply changing the position of the lever bearing screw. There are three settings, each of which provides 90 full-radial actuation. Each new setting mimics a piston diameter change of 1 mm.
Technical Details:
- Machined Aluminum Body - This master cylinder body has been produced from high-grade aluminum alloy to ensure a lightweight design combined with maximum rigidity which has been built to last.
- 90 Full Radial Design - Pushrod and cylinder at right angle to handlebar results in decreased friction and more direct brake feeling for improved control.
- Full ABS Compatibility - MAGURA "HCT" is approved for continuous use with all ABS systems without loss of performance due to pressure compensation (ABS-Kickback). (Status 01.2016)
- Three-Way Lever Ratio - The hand-activated master cylinder lever has a clever three-way adjustable point of support. This mimics the effect of using a piston size 1 mm below and above the selected hydraulic ratio. Simply remove and reposition the lever support retaining bolt for a softer or harder pressure point. All three positions offer 90 full radial activation.
- Folding Lever Blade - Reduces the force exerted on the master cylinder body in the event of a fall-over. This will increase the possibility to continue riding following a fall-over incident.
- Advanced Secondary Seal Technology - The rear piston seal has been specially designed to prevent the introduction of air through secondary seal ingress. The advanced X-Ring seal design will reduce or eliminate this problem common on racing motorcycles at higher RPM.
- Reservoir Mount - The master cylinder is supplied with an external reservoir and mounting bracket designed to use minimum space and with smoked glass to optically determine the level and condition of the brake fluid at all times.
- Titanium Retaining Bolts - Lever and clamp retaining bolts are high-grade titanium saving weight while remaining strong and durable.
- Brake Master:
- Piston diameter 18 mm = 17 to 19 mm (fully ABE approved).
- Piston diameter 12 mm = 11 to 13 mm, short lever blade, without switch and ABE (race version).
- Items Included with Delivery - Each HC3 master cylinder comes ready to install and delivery includes:
- Three-way lever ratio (mimics 1 mm hydraulic ratio adjustment).
- Banjo connector with sealing rings.
- Remote reservoir.
- Standard clamp (without mirror mount).
- Pre-installed switch (for brake or clutch activation).
- ABE (German TUV Approval) for 15 mm and 18 mm diameter brake master.
- Owner's manual.
- Note: 12 mm HC3 race version is delivered with a short fold lever without brake light switch and ABE.
