Split systems protecting passenger car brakes against failure can serve hydraulic brakes of commercial highway vehicles; tandem master cylinder, developed by Bendix Corp, separates conventional hydraulic circuitry into 2 sections; tandem cylinder has independent fluid reservoirs and bores, and thus it continues to operate either section alone in event failure occurs in other; because there is no splitting between brakes on same axle, vehicle directional stability and control is facilitated when either section is operated in absence of other; suitability for light and heavy duty vehicles.
