ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A slack adjuster for a rail vehicle brake system, com- prising a brake force receiving adjuster tube, a spindle axially movable therein, and two nuts, an adjuster nut and a leader nut, which are in non-self-locking thread engagement with the spindle and are held resiliently in clutch engagement with a clutch ring and a control sleeve respectively, the latter being axially mo- vable in the tube a distance corresponding to the desired slack. In order to transform this so called stroke-sensing ad- juster into the so called clearance-sensing type being independent of the elasticity part of the application stroke the adjuster nut and the clutch ring in coaction are arranged to submit a force to the leader nut for locking the latter against rotation under de- formation of a resilient element at the occurrence of a counter- force on the spindle during the brake application.
