AUTOMOTIVE BRAKE FLUID Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Automotive brake fluid is a hydraulic fluid used in brake systems to transfer force from the brake pedal to the brake calipers, enabling the vehicle to stop. It is typically composed of glycol-ether or silicone-based fluids and must meet specific performance standards. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture, which can reduce its effectiveness. Proper handling, storage, and regular maintenance are essential to ensure brake system performance and safety.
