Boiling Points
As the brake system heats up, brake fluids with low boiling points begin to vaporize. The brake
pedal must travel further to apply the same amount of force on the brakes, causing a spongy
feeling. If enough of the brake fluid vaporizes, brake system failure may occur. Brake fluid boiling
points are measured on two separate scales:
•Dry equilibrium reflux boiling point (ERBP) - the boiling point of new, freshly-opened, unused fluid.
•Wet ERBP - the boiling point of a brake fluid after it has absorbed three percent water.
The minimum dry ERBP for DOT 4 brake fluid is 230°C (446°F), while the minimum wet ERBP is
155°C (311°F). Their higher boiling points make DOT 4 fluids appropriate for high-performance
cars and motorcycles and for vehicles used for towing or in mountainous regions.
AMSOIL Series 600 DOT 4 Racing Brake Fluid is formulated with the best zinc-based anti-
corrosion additives and pH stabilizers. It is designed for high-temperature stability, yet flows easily
at low temperatures. AMSOIL Series 600 Racing Brake Fluid's superior additive package provides
good lubrication throughout the system and can raise boiling points to more than 232°C (450°F).
It keeps water in suspension, slowing its effects on the brake system. AMSOIL Brake Fluids have
high boiling temperatures, ensuring maximum life and reliable braking power, even in extreme
conditions. AMSOIL Series 500 High- Performance DOT 3 Brake Fluid has a dry ERBP of 274°C
(525°F) and wet ERBP of 156°C (313°F). AMSOIL Series 600 DOT 4 Racing Brake Fluid has a
dry ERBP of 304°C (580°F) and wet ERBP of 210°C (410°F).
Compressibility
When a fluid is non-compressible it means it won’t compress into a smaller volume when pressure
is applied. In a brake system, fluid pressure is multiplied by the master cylinder and can reach
more than 1,000 pounds per square inch (psi) in the lines. Like any other hydraulic fluid, brake
fluid must be non-compressible at the expected pressures to transmit force from one end of the
system to the other while simultaneously lubricating the pistons and rubber parts as they move
through their bores. If the fluid were to compress, all braking power would be lost. AMSOIL Series
600 DOT 4 Racing Brake Fluid remains non-compressible, even at the highest pressures
generated in automotive brake systems. AMSOIL Brake Fluid provides superior stopping ability
under the most demanding conditions.
Brake Fluid Maintenance
Brake fluids fail either because they boil or because they cease to provide adequate lubrication
and corrosion protection. Both reasons for failure are the result of contamination, usually by water
or petroleum products.
DOT 3 and DOT 4 polyglycol ether-based brake fluids are hygroscopic, which means they absorb
water easily and hold it in suspension, similar to antifreeze. In most climates, moisture seeps into
the brake system continuously through the various seals and microscopic pores of the flexible
brake lines. This seepage can accelerate as a vehicle ages and there’s almost no limit to how
much water the fluid can absorb. By the time brake fluid has been in the system for three years, it
can easily reach its wet boiling point. Because this happens gradually, most drivers won’t discover
the reduced braking ability until it’s too late.
Many owner’s manuals recommend changing brake fluid every 24 months to remove moisture.
Approximately half of all cars and light trucks in the U.S. over 10 years old have never had the
brake fluid changed. In addition, powersports applications such as motorcycles, ATVs and UTVs
require routine brake fluid changes as well.
