Motul RBF 600 Synthetic Racing Brake Fluid - 12 Pack (500 ml)
Category: motul rbf 600
This product is specifically formulated for hydraulic actuated brake and clutch systems that require a non-silicone synthetic fluid. It has been engineered to withstand the intense temperatures associated with racing applications, whether utilizing steel or carbon components. Its performance surpasses both DOT 5.1 and DOT 3 standards, although it does not meet viscosity requirements at -40 degrees Celsius (-40 degrees Fahrenheit).
The remarkable thermal resistance and stability of this fluid stem from its exceptionally high boiling point of 312 degrees Celsius (594 degrees Fahrenheit). This performance benchmark is significantly greater than that of traditional DOT 5.1 non-silicone fluids, which have a minimum boiling point of 260 degrees Celsius (500 degrees Fahrenheit), as well as DOT 4 fluids, which have a minimum boiling point of 230 degrees Celsius (446 degrees Fahrenheit). As a result, this fluid ensures effective braking even under the most extreme conditions.
In rainy weather, the high wet boiling point of 205 degrees Celsius (401 degrees Fahrenheit) further enhances its performance. This rating outperforms conventional DOT 5.1 non-silicone fluids that typically have a wet boiling point of only 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) and DOT 4 fluids which have a minimum of 155 degrees Celsius (311 degrees Fahrenheit). Such characteristics enable the maintenance of an efficient braking system when moisture is present.
It's important to note that DOT 3, DOT 4, and DOT 5.1 brake fluids inherently have the ability to absorb moisture from the air. This property can lower their boiling points, increasing the likelihood of “vapor lock,” a condition that adversely affects braking performance. The measurement of the wet boiling point is conducted by adding approximately 3.5 percent water to the fluid, simulating the humidity absorption that could occur in real-world conditions.
In summary, this non-silicone synthetic fluid has been meticulously designed for hydraulic brake and clutch systems that demand high performance. With exceptional thermal resistance and impressive stability, its very high boiling point ensures that brakes remain effective in extreme conditions. The superior wet boiling point allows for reliable braking even in rainy situations, making it ideal for competitive racing and other high-stakes applications.
Ultimately, this product not only meets but exceeds industry standards, allowing racers and drivers to maintain optimal performance without compromise. The focus on aerodynamic performance further enhances its appeal, making it a crucial component for those looking to achieve peak efficiency and reliability in their hydraulic actuated systems. By choosing this fluid, users can trust in a product that prioritizes safety and performance, ensuring that every braking action is executed with confidence, no matter the conditions.
