Putoline DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid 500 ML Bottle
Putoline DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid (500 ml) is a high-quality synthetic brake fluid designed to meet and exceed the requirements of motorcycle manufacturers. It’s formulated to provide superior performance and is suitable for a range of motorcycles, ensuring optimal braking function.
Key Features:
High-Grade Synthetic Fluid:
DOT 5.1 is a synthetic brake fluid that offers excellent high-temperature stability and low viscosity, which helps maintain brake performance even in demanding conditions.
Meets Industry Standards:
This brake fluid exceeds the following specifications:
- FMVSS 116 DOT 5.1: The standard for brake fluid performance in the United States.
- ISO 4925 Class 7: Ensures compatibility with the braking systems and high moisture resistance.
- JIS K2233: The Japanese industrial standard for brake fluid.
Compatibility:
It can be mixed with synthetic DOT 3 and DOT 4 fluids, making it versatile and easy to top up if necessary, as long as it's DOT-compatible.
Effective for High-Performance Brakes:
DOT 5.1 fluid is often preferred for motorcycles with high-performance braking systems because it maintains consistent braking response, even under heavy use or high temperatures.
Routine Maintenance:
The fluid should be replaced every two years to ensure your braking system remains in optimal condition. This regular change helps maintain the brake fluid’s performance and prevents moisture buildup, which can cause brake fading or corrosion of brake components.
Benefits:
Superior Braking Performance: It ensures precise, reliable braking, especially under extreme conditions like high temperatures or frequent braking.
Corrosion Protection: Protects internal brake system components from corrosion and wear.
Moisture Resistance: By maintaining proper fluid levels and using high-grade fluid, the system is more resistant to moisture absorption, which could otherwise reduce braking efficiency.
Usage Instructions:
Check for Compatibility: Always verify that your motorcycle’s brake system is designed for DOT 5.1 fluid before using it.
Replace Regularly: As mentioned, brake fluid should be replaced every two years, or more frequently if the fluid appears discolored or degraded.
Use Proper Procedures: Follow your motorcycle’s manual for detailed instructions on fluid replacement to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Conclusion:
The Putoline DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid is a reliable, high-performance option for keeping your motorcycle’s braking system in top condition. With excellent moisture resistance, high-temperature stability, and compatibility with other synthetic fluids, it’s an ideal choice for riders who want to ensure safe, consistent braking.
