In this paper, we carried out a study to upsurge the brilliance of the plungers used in the braking system. The main focus has been taken on various defects that occur in the plungers during manufacturing. In this work, we analyzed the types of defects that transpire in the plunger. The foremost issue is acknowledged using tools like Pareto graphic representation, root and effect diagram, Failure Mode and Effect Analysis, Trend Analysis and Control chart. We identified more frequently occurring defects and major causes and effects of these defects in plungers. Based on the result of the analysis, interpretation measures are taken to overcome the defects of the plungers that will help to improve the overall efficiency of the brake system in vehicles.
