PREVENT Brake fluids: Glykolstop DOT 3, DOT 4 and Super DOT 4

Brake fluids play an important role in safe driving: brake fluid is the medium that transmits the compressive force in the brake system. One of the main characteristics of brake fluid is that it takes up water from its surrounding (even in a seemingly closed system like the brake system). This process causes a drastic lowering of its boiling point which in turn could lead to a reduced brake effect.When brake fluid becomes used, its quality deteriorates. In such instances, the heat induced by friction when applying the brakes may cause the brake fluid to reach its boiling point with the result of a diminished brake effect. This could lead to a serious accident at the worst. For this reason it is very important to use brake fluids in accordance with international standards and of the best quality. It is recommended to have the brake fluid checked regularly and to change it completely every 12 to 18 months.The brake fluids of our PREVENT Glykolstop product line meet all the required specifications of the European and American standards. They can be used in all vehicles requiring the standards as specified in the table below. When the brake fluid reaches its boiling point a gas phase is formed in the brake system. In contrast with the brake fluid, the gas phase is compressible and this may lead to the reducing of the brake effect. The products of our PREVENT product line are guaranteed to have a boiling point value which is higher than the values specified in the required standards. PREVENT brake fluids can be used in other vehicles having a hydraulic brake system as well.
