Brake device for a hydraulic motor vehicle brake system

A brake device for a hydraulic motor vehicle brake system without a vacuum booster, comprising:

• a housing with at least one pressure chamber arranged therein,
• with a cylinder piston which can be axially moved in an actuation direction by an actuating rod unit coupled to the cylinder piston, wherein a rigid stop is provided for the cylinder piston which defines the non-actuated starting position of the cylinder piston, and,
• a damping element which permits a mechanical decoupling of the actuating rod unit from the cylinder piston in a release direction opposite the actuation direction by a reversible deformation, and
• wherein the damping element is positionally secured in the cylinder piston by plastic deformation of a region of the cylinder piston.
