Liquid formulated specifically to be used in hydraulic brake systems.
A specially-formulated non-petroleum liquid used to transmit hydraulic force in an automotive braking system. Modern formulas may be rated DOT (Department of Transportation) 3, 4, or 5 (silicone, color-coded purple) according to their resistance to boiling. It should be changed at regular intervals to prevent internal hydraulic system corrosion and other problems.
Working fluid in a hydraulic system to transfers the pedal pressure from the master cylinder to the brake cylinders or the clutch slave cylinder.
A hydraulic fluid used to transmit force through brake lines.
A hydroscopic liquid (absorbs water) with a high boiling point, used in a hydraulic brake system.
The liquid in the brake system that acts as a hydraulic fluid. As you step on the brake pedal, the fluid is forced through the brake system and initiates the braking components.
The fluid used in hydraulic brakes. Bicycles use either D.O.T. fluid or mineral oil.
A compressible liquid used in hydraulic disc or drum brake systems. Friction - The resistance to motion between two surfaces in contact with each other.
The liquid used in the hydraulic brake system to stop or slow the car. See also brake discs, brake lines.
A specially formulated liquid used to transmit brake pedal pressure from the master cylinder to the wheel cylinders.
The brake system uses a glycol-based hydraulic fluid. The fluid is "hygroscopic," which means it tends to absorb moisture over time (never leave a can of brake fluid open for this reason). Moisture lowers the boiling point of the fluid and causes internal
Brake fluid is a type of hydraulic fluid used in brake applications in motorcycles, automobiles, light trucks and some advanced bicycles. It is used to transfer force under pressure from where it is created through hydraulic lines to the braking mechanism near the wheels. It works because liquids are not appreciably compressible.
