Description
PACIFIC BRAKO DOT 4 is an efficient performance non-petroleum automotive brake fluid, designed for use in conventional hydraulic brakes and clutch systems, where DOT 4 fluids are recommended.
PACIFIC BRAKO DOT 4 is a complex mixture of polyglycol ethers, glycol ether borate esters and polyglycols with additional corrosion and oxidation inhibitors
Features and Benefits
- Higher boiling point (260 °C) that other DOT 4 brake fluids, and retention of boiling point in service helps prevent high temperature vapour formation, maintaining braking performance longer than DOT 3 products
- Contributes an additional safety margin against vapour lock when compared with lower specification fluids
- Buffered formulation maintains pH level in the alkaline range, helping protect cast iron and steel components
- Inhibitors contribute to corrosion protection of a wide variety of metals including aluminium, brass, copper, zinc, and tin
- Seal swell and lubricity characteristics help prevent fluid leaks and reduce component wear
- Thermal and oxidation stability helps resist fluid degradation, maintaining key performance features throughout fluid service life
- Suitable for a wide range of vehicle types, reducing inventories
Applications
PACIFIC BRAKO DOT 4 meets the recognised standards for clutch and brake fluids as demanded by leading motor vehicle manufacturers
- All hydraulically operated motor vehicle braking systems (drum and disc types) for which a DOT 4, SAE J1704 or ISO 4925 CLass 4 fluid is specified.
- Make-up or service fill of braking systems requiring DOT 3, SAE J1703 or ISO 4925 Class 3 fluids
- Vehicles with anti-lock (ABS) braking systems
- Hydraulic clutch systems requiring conventional fluids
- Passenger cars, commercial road transport, off-highway vehicles, agricultural tractors and motorcycles
PACIFIC BRAKO DOT 4 is compatible with other brands DOT 4 / DOT 3 brake fluid.
PACIFIC BRAKO DOT 4 should not to be used in systems designed for mineral oil based fluid (LHM), for example certain Citroen models, or where Silicone DOT 5 fluids are recommended.
