A silicone based brake fluid. It offers a very high dry boiling point that exceeds 260°C; is non-aggressive and safe for paint; plastics surfaces; clothing and such. DOT 5 silicone will not absorb water like regular brake fluids do. DOT 5 silicone is not very foam resistant and therefore not compatible with ABS or ASR systems. DOT 5 silicone cannot be mixed with other brake fluids. Tech tip: If you want to use DOT 5 may be easier to decide if it''s right for you with some added knowledge about this type of brake fluid. DOT 5 silicone is non-aggressive for painted surfaces; plastics and has anti-corrosive characteristics; is non-hygroscopic and will therefore not absorb water. Great characteristics for vehicles that are not used much. However; when water accumulates in the brake system over time; and it is not absorbed by the brake fluid; in theory it could create pockets of water which could boil in extreme circumstances. This could result in vapor lock and total brake failure. Since DOT 5 silicone does not absorb water the accumulated water may not fully be removed from the brake system when the brake fluid is changed. DOT 5 silicone may never be mixed with DOT 3 or 4 brake fluids. It is also not compatible with ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) or ASR (Anti Slip Regulation) since it will foam easier. Note that The H-D Motor Company has used DOT 5 up to around 2006; about the time when ABS was introduced...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUp to 2005 Softail; Dyna; V-Rod; up to 2004 FLT\/Touring; up to 2006 XL\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Putoline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e OILS AND CHEMICALS \u0026gt; BRAKE FLUIDS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct code:\u003c\/strong\u003e 591240\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Putoline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57372378857859,"sku":"MCS591240","price":22.07,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1329\/4265\/files\/591240k.jpg?v=1775140376","url":"https:\/\/hogparts.com\/products\/mcs591240","provider":"Hogparts UK Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
