Purpose and Specifications
Keep your brakes responsive and reliable with Total HBF 4 DOT 4 Brake Fluid in a convenient 500ml bottle. This premium synthetic fluid delivers powerful braking performance for cars, trucks, and motorcycles with hydraulic brake and clutch systems. It resists boiling at high temps over 230°C dry and 155°C wet, preventing vapor lock and brake fade during hard stops or spirited driving.
Practical perks include smooth flow in freezing cold down to -40°C for quick starts, strong protection against rust on metal parts like steel and aluminum, and compatibility with rubber seals and hoses. Mixes safely with other DOT 3, DOT 4, or DOT 5.1 fluids, but never with mineral or silicone types. Meets tough standards like FMVSS 116 DOT 4, SAE J1704, and ISO 4925 Class 4.
When to Use / Replace?
Use Total HBF 4 for everyday driving, towing heavy loads, or track days where brakes get hot. Replace every 2 years or 40,000 km, whichever comes first, as it absorbs moisture over time which lowers boiling point and effectiveness. Unopened shelf life is 5 years in a cool, dry spot. Top off low reservoirs or do a full flush for best results.
Key Benefits:
- Stops brakes from fading under heat
- Works great in extreme hot or cold weather
- Shields system from corrosion for longer life
- 500ml size perfect for maintenance jobs
