Silicone DOT 5 Brake Fluid
Silicone DOT 5 Brake Fluid exceeds FMVSS / CMVSS 116 DOT 5, SAE J1705 and ISO 4925 silicone base motor vehicle brake fluid specifications. Mixes with all fluids meeting such specifications. DOT 5 brake fluid may not be mixed with DOT 3, DOT 4 and DOT 5.1 brake fluids. DOT 5 may be used if a complete system flush is done. For use in all drum or disc hydraulic brake systems, except systems using mineral-based fluids (LHM).
Silicone DOT 5 Brake Fluid is specially formulated to exceed all DOT 5 specifications for superior brake performance. It is compatible with all DOT 5 type products and has outstanding high- and low-temperature properties for consistent and fade-free braking performance. Silicone DOT 5 Brake Fluid will not absorb water and is non-corrosive and non-toxic. It will not affect painted surfaces and other materials.
APPLICATIONS
- When DOT 5 product is specified for hydraulic brake systems.
- For consistent feel and long-lasting superior brake performance such as racing.
PRODUCT FEATURES
- High vapor point.
- High boiling point.
- High compatibility.
- Corrosion protection.
BENEFITS
- Resists vapor formation to minimize the potential for vapor lock and the subsequent loss of braking power.
- Eliminates brake fade for superior performance.
- Compatible with all seal materials normally used in brake systems.
- Special formulation with inhibitors against rust and chloride corrosion.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Follow vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations when adding brake fluid. Keep brake fluid clean and dry. Contamination with dirt, water, petroleum products or other materials may result in brake failure or costly repairs. Store brake fluid only in its original container. Keep container clean and tightly closed to prevent absorption of moisture.
For best results, drain and replace the brake fluid once a year. Flush and refill system with fresh Silicone DOT 5 Brake Fluid. Bleed the hydraulic system as recommended by the manufacturer. Check and replace damaged seals and dust protectors if needed. Dispose of empty containers in a responsible manner.
Caution: Do not mix with DOT 3 or DOT 4 type brake fluids which are incompatible with DOT 5. Store in a cool and dry environment. Always wear safety glasses when using this product. Keep container away from heat.
