About Brake Fluid
Brake fluid is a type of liquid used in the braking systems of motor vehicles. It is designed to transfer pressure from the brake pedal to the brakes, allowing them to work properly and providing maximum stopping power. The most common types of brake fluid are glycol-ether based, silicone-based, and mineral oil-based.
Types of Brake Fluid
The three main types of brake fluids have different properties that make them suitable for different applications. Glycol-ether based fluids are the most common type and provide excellent lubrication and corrosion protection, while silicone-based fluids offer better heat resistance but tend to be more expensive. Mineral oil-based fluids are often used in racing applications due to their superior boiling points.
How Brake Fluid are Made
Brake fluid is typically made from a combination of glycols, alcohols, surfactants, corrosion inhibitors, water absorption agents, and other compounds. The exact composition varies depending on the manufacturer's specifications and can include additional additives such as borate or phosphate esters.
Industries that use Brake Fluid
Brake fluid is an essential component in any vehicle with a hydraulic braking system and can be found in cars, trucks, motorcycles, ATVs, snowmobiles, boats, aircrafts and many other types of vehicles. Professionals such as mechanics or technicians who specialize in automotive repair may need to purchase brake fluid when servicing brakes or replacing components such as master cylinders or calipers.
