Description

Genuine Apec · Part no. ABF5500

Safety: Warning. Suspected of damaging fertility. Suspected of damaging the unborn child. Read the label before use.

Apec ABF5500 is DOT 5.1 brake fluid in a 500ml bottle, handy for topping up a system that already runs on DOT 5.1 or for bleeding a clutch. DOT 5.1 is glycol-based, not silicone, and this one meets DOT 5.1, DOT 4 and DOT 3 under FMVSS 116, with corrosion protection.

Good to know

• Can I add it to DOT 4 fluid? Yes, glycol fluids mix, but treat the mix as no better than the lower grade; for full DOT 5.1 performance, change all the fluid.
• How often does the fluid need changing? Moisture creeps in over time and lowers the boiling point, so change it at the interval in the service schedule.
• What precautions should I take? Wear gloves, keep it off paintwork, and close the bottle tightly at once, as it takes in moisture when open.

Which one?

For a full change, the Apec DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid 1L (ABF5001); if your car takes standard DOT 4, the Apec DOT 4 Brake Fluid 500Ml (ABF3500).
