Purpose and Specifications

RAVENOL DOT 4 500ML is a universal brake fluid perfect for everyday cars, trucks, and motorcycles with or without ABS systems. This mid-range quality fluid from RAVENOL (product code 1350601-500-05-000) delivers reliable braking by staying chemically stable at high temperatures over 260°C, preventing fluid breakdown and brake fade during hard stops.

It protects your braking system from corrosion and wear with proven additives that lubricate parts smoothly, extending caliper and master cylinder life. The low viscosity ensures quick response even in cold weather down to -40°C, while optimal pressure transfer gives consistent, safe braking in all conditions. At 0.5 liters, it's ideal for top-ups or small flushes.

• High boiling point: Stays effective above 260°C dry, resists vapor lock in stop-and-go or mountain driving.
• Moisture control: Absorbs water to fight corrosion, but replace every 2 years or 40,000 km for peak performance.
• Shelf life: Up to 5 years unopened in cool, dry storage.

When to Use / Replace?

Use RAVENOL DOT 4 in any vehicle calling for DOT 4 specs, especially for daily drives, spirited road use, or systems with ABS/ESP. It's fully compatible and miscible with other DOT 4 or DOT 3 fluids. Replace every 24 months or 40,000-60,000 km (check your manual), or sooner if brakes feel spongy, pedal sinks, or fluid looks dark/contaminated.

Practical tip: Flush the system fully during service to avoid mixing old fluid, ensuring max protection up to high-heat scenarios without fade.
