The stepped piston (50, 50?) includes a plane support (54, 54?) for plane support legs (55a,b,c; 55a,b,c?) of the spring cage (53, 53?) The stepped piston (50, 50?) includes radially inwards, with respect to the support (54, 54?), a stepped bore (56, 56?), with the bore (56, 56?) accommodating centering legs (57a,b,c; 57a,b,c?) of the spring cage (53, 53?).
