Purpose and Specifications

TOMEX Brakes DO-50 is a synthetic DOT 5.1 brake fluid designed for modern vehicles with advanced braking systems. This fluid maintains consistent performance across a wide temperature range, ensuring reliable stopping power in both everyday driving and demanding conditions.

Key Performance Features:

• Synthetic formula resists moisture absorption, keeping your braking system clean and responsive
• Works safely with ABS and ESP electronic stability systems
• Dry boiling point of 260°C prevents brake fade during intense braking
• Maintains proper viscosity (thickness) in cold weather down to -40°C and hot conditions up to +200°C
• Recommended for heavy-duty vehicles and commercial applications

When to Use or Replace?

Brake fluid should be replaced every 2 years or 40,000 km, whichever comes first. Replace immediately if:

• Brake pedal feels soft or spongy
• Warning light appears on your dashboard
• Fluid appears dark or contaminated
• You notice reduced braking responsiveness

This 0.5-liter bottle is ideal for topping up your system or small brake maintenance jobs. For complete system flushes, larger containers are available.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I mix DOT 5.1 with other brake fluid types?
A: No. DOT 5.1 is incompatible with DOT 5 (silicone-based). Always use the same type your vehicle manufacturer specifies. Mixing causes brake failure.

Q: How long does an opened bottle last?
A: Once opened, use within 6 months. Brake fluid absorbs moisture from air, which reduces effectiveness and can damage brake components.

Q: Is this fluid safe for my car's ABS system?
A: Yes. This DOT 5.1 fluid is specifically formulated and tested for vehicles with ABS and ESP systems. It will not damage electronic brake components.
