Vacuum brake boosters and related components

Vacuum Brake Boosters for All Makes & Models

At A-Z Motor Factors Halifax, we supply high-quality vacuum brake boosters and related components designed to deliver stronger braking force with minimal pedal effort. All boosters and servo units are engineered to OE standards for safety, performance and durability.

What Is a Vacuum Brake Booster?

A vacuum brake booster — also known as a brake servo — sits between the brake pedal and the master cylinder. It uses engine vacuum or an electric pump to multiply the force applied to the pedal. This allows for:

• Easier braking

• Shorter stopping distances

• Improved pedal feel

• Safer emergency braking

A failing booster can dramatically reduce brake efficiency and is a safety-critical component.

Symptoms of a Faulty Brake Booster

Replace your brake booster or related parts if you notice:

• Hard brake pedal

• Increased stopping distance

• Hissing noise from pedal area

• Poor brake assist

• Engine stalling when braking (vacuum leak)

• Brake warning lights

• MOT failure due to brake imbalance

A faulty servo must be replaced immediately for safe braking.

Brake Booster Components We Supply ✔ Vacuum Brake Boosters / Servo Units

Direct-fit replacements for all makes and models.

✔ Vacuum Pumps (Mechanical / Electric)

Essential for diesel engines, hybrids and vehicles with low vacuum.

✔ Vacuum Hoses & Pipes

Replace cracked or leaking hoses to restore correct vacuum pressure.

✔ Non-Return Valves / Check Valves

Maintain correct one-way vacuum flow within the braking system.

✔ Servo Gaskets & Mounting Hardware

Ensures a secure, airtight installation.

All components are built to OE specifications for reliability and long service life.

Why Brake Boosters Fail

Common causes include:

• Vacuum leaks

• Damaged diaphragms

• Faulty check valves

• Cracked vacuum hoses

• Failing engine vacuum or pumps

• Internal corrosion

• Wear and age

Replacing the faulty part restores brake assist and improves vehicle safety.

Left / Right & Vehicle-Specific Fitment

Brake boosters vary by:

• Engine size

• Vacuum source

• Mounting pattern

• Master cylinder connection

• Number of ports

• Servo diameter

• Brake system type (ABS / ESP)

Our reg lookup ensures perfect compatibility.
