Product Details
SL.6 DOT-4 Brake Fluid by ATE®. This brake fluid for hydraulic motor vehicle brake and clutch systems is, due to its low viscosity at extremely low temperatures, particularly well suited to brake systems with electronically controlled hydraulic components which require rapid modulation of the brake pressure at the braked wheel, particularly in systems, called "Electronic Stability Program" (ESP*) which used to prevent vehicle oversteer and understeer. The fluid composition is used by renowned car manufacturers on a mass-production scale.

The viscosity at –40° C is max. 700 mm²/s which is approximately half that of many other commercially available DOT 4 fluids and thus meets the requirements of ISO specification 4925 for brake fluids with low viscosity at low temperatures (class 6). The brake fluid consists of polyethylene glycol ethers, polyethylene glycols, boric acid esters of poly ethylene glycols with anti-corrosion / anti-aging agents and further additives. ATE DOT 4 brake fluid SL.6 meets and exceeds the requirements of brake fluid standards FMVSS no. 116 –DOT 4, SAE J1704 and ISO 4925, class 6 (among others).
The ATE brake fluid SL.6 can also be mixed with other brake fluids which meet the specifications ISO 4925 Class 6, DOT 5.1 or DOT 4. However, the optimum ESP functionality, also at very low temperatures, is best ensured with fluids meeting the requirements of the specification ISO 4925 Class 6.
Brake fluid must be replaced regularly. The replacement intervals specified by the vehicle manufacturer must be complied with. The instructions of the vehicle manufacturer with respect to the brake fluid specification must be observed.
ATE® was and is a pioneer of technical innovations. No one can imagine a car without ATE today: among other things ATE is the pioneers of the hydraulic brake system in Europe, and development partners for driver assistance and braking systems.
