Why You Need a Performance Brake Fluid
|
Brake Pros has researched and tested nearly every fluid on the market. We’ve done the work so that you don’t have to, and to insure that you never have to learn the hard way that not all brake fluid is created equal.
Brake fluid is the most overlooked and underappreciated component of your brake system. Many people realize the need for brake upgrades and buy the correct hardware, only to fill the system with something obtained from the local parts store. The importance of a high performance brake fluid cannot be stressed enough.
The following brake fluids are less compressible at all temperatures, so the brakes feel and perform better. To exceed DOT 4 standards, they contain less trapped air and have higher boiling points, making them at home on the street or at the track. All automotive brake fluids are hygroscopic (absorb moisture over time) and should be completely flushed at least every two years. If you frequently attend track days, they should be bled before every event.
Brake Pros neither sells nor recommends the use of silicone-based brake fluids (DOT 5) in ours or any other automotive braking system.
Performance Brake Fluids

AP Racing AP600
High Performance Brake Fluid
AP600 fluid has been developed for high temperature racing applications, such as carbon/carbon discs, where the ultimate in brake fluid performance is required.
When switching to AP600, any existing brake fluid should be drained completely and purged with new AP600 fluid. Not for use in any type of magnesium components, such as certain racing gearboxes and/or clutch slaves.

Motul RBF600
High Performance Brake Fluid
RBF600 is an outstanding high temperature brake fluid preferred by many tuners and race teams.
Laboratory testing confirms this fluid exceeds the specifications of DOT5 silicone-based fluid, and it is glycol-based for far less compressibility (firmer pedal) and much better lubricating properties for longer seal life
