Long life 100% Synthetic Brake Fluid For hydraulic actuated brake and clutch systems - DOT 5.1 NON SILICONE BASE
TYPE OF USE :
For all types of hydraulically actuated brake and clutch systems requiring fluids meeting DOT 3, DOT 4, or DOT 5.1 specifications as per manufacturers recommendations.
Fluidity specially designed for anti-locking brake systems (ABS) and other electronic stability programs (ESP, ASR,...).
STANDARDS
FMVSS 116 DOT 3 / 116 DOT 4 / 116 DOT 5.1 NON SILICONE BASE
ISO 4925 (5.1, 4 & 3)
SAE J1703
Long life fluid:
MOTUL DOT 5.1 high wet boiling point (185C / 365F) is superior than the requirements of the standards DOT 3
(140C mini / 284F mini), DOT 4 (155C mini / 311F mini) and DOT 5.1 (180C mini / 356F mini), and therefore
enables longer use of this product.
Indeed, DOT 3, DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 brake fluids have the property of absorbing moisture from the air, which reduces
their boiling points and therefore braking safety.
The wet boiling point is measured after moistening the product with 3% water in order to be representative of the state
of the fluid after 1 year of use.
Perfectly neutral with seals used in braking systems. Anti-corrosion.
Specially designed for anti-locking brake systems (ABS):
The viscosity at cold temperature (820 mm /s at -40C / -40F) of MOTUL DOT 5.1 is lower than DOT 4 (up to 1800
mm /s) and DOT 3 (up to 1500 mm /s) brake fluid specifications and allows easier fluid circulation and flow through the
micro-valves of anti-locking systems for better response of ABS and other electronic stability programs (ESP, ASR,...)
requiring quick brake systems actuation.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Oil changes: 12 to 24 months according to the manufacturers' recommendations.
For safety advice, draining once a year is recommended.
Mixable with DOT 3, DOT 4 and DOT 5.1 NON SILICONE BASE products.
Do not mix with silicone (DOT 5 silicone base) or mineral base fluids (LHM).
Store brake fluid in its original container, tightly closed to avoid absorption of moisture.
Aggressive chemical product if contact with hands, paint or varnish.
If skin contact, rinse thoroughly with water.
