Dot 5, Silicone Brake Fluid - 140 ml

DOT 5 – HIGH PERFORMANCE SILICONE BRAKE FLUID

A SYNTHETIC FLUID FOR OPTIMAL PROTECTION OF HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS

DOT 5 is a silicone-based synthetic brake fluid specifically designed to provide maximum protection for hydraulic braking and clutch circuits. Compatible with a wide range of vehicles, including passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and trucks, it also meets the requirements of modern ABS systems and extreme conditions in motorsport.

Thanks to its advanced formulation, this fluid can be mixed with other types of brake fluid such as DOT 3, DOT 4, and DOT 5, while maintaining optimal performance and excellent longevity for the vehicle's hydraulic components.

MAIN ADVANTAGES OF DOT 5

• Excellent heat resistance: Its high boiling point prevents the formation of steam pockets, ensuring a constant and reliable braking response.
• Optimized viscosity: Ensures effective performance at both high temperatures and cold conditions, for consistent performance in all conditions.
• Perfect compatibility with seals: Suitable for flexible materials, this fluid prevents premature wear of hydraulic components.
• Advanced corrosion protection: Prevents oxidation and provides long-term protection for the internal components of the braking system.
• Thermal durability: Even after prolonged exposure to high temperatures, the boiling point remains stable, ensuring continued effectiveness.
• Limited moisture absorption: Unlike conventional fluids, its low hygroscopicity reduces the risk of degradation and performance loss.
• Prevention of deposits and impurities: Minimizes the formation of residues and gums, helping to extend the life of the braking system.

HOW TO USE & RECOMMENDATIONS

⚠ Important! This fluid must not be used for systems requiring a mineral LHM hydraulic fluid.

Instructions for use:

1. Completely drain the old fluid from the hydraulic system.
2. Thoroughly clean the system to remove any residues.
3. Fill the system with DOT 5, then perform a full purge to ensure effective and safe braking performance.

Precautions:

• Do not mix with hydrocarbons such as petrol, diesel, or oil.
• Incompatible with specific Citroën hydraulic systems, particularly those requiring mineral LHM fluid (identified by green-painted components).
• Do not substitute for LOCKHEED HD12 fluid.
• Avoid mixing with other silicone or silicate ester products.
