Question:

Can anyone tell me if the casting process to make C11000 is much different from C122000?

This would be for the casting process for the production of bar and/or tubing

Answer:

The ONLY thing that can cause complete failure of all braking is a human being making the mistake of only using the regular brake pedal and forgetting that the parking brake can be used as a backup when the regular brake fails.
car has an emergency brake. I don't know where this stupid thing of calling the hand brake or a parking brake the emergency brake or e-brake came from, but it is WRONG. Most people teach people to the lowest level of driving. They do not teach beyond the basics just because it confuses most drivers. I you want to be safer, you need advanced driving techinques such as driving using the hand brake or toe-and-heel to drive with clutch brake and accelerator used at the same time. If he is good, it is safer to the hand brake while driving. If not, then not. Time only can tell if he is good or is not -- ask in about 20 years.
All cars in the US have split braking systems. The front wheel brakes are controlled by 1/2 of the master cylinder and the rear brakes are controlled by the other half of the master cylinder. That's why you'll see a split reservoir in the master cylinder. You can have a broken brake line and no fluid in it and still have some braking capability on the other side of the system. To lose complete and sudden braking on all four wheels, your brake pedal and/or linkage would have to become disconnected from the master cylinder. But you still have some braking with your parking/emergency brakes. That is a mechanical braking system completely independent of the hydraulic system.
C11000 is pure copper basically. C12200 is basically the same that is O2 free and has some phosphorus residue.
