Castrol React Performance DOT4

Description

Castrol React Performance DOT 4 is a high boiling point synthetic brake fluid which far exceeds the requirements of the
SAE J1704, FMVSS 116 DOT 3 and DOT 4, ISO 4925 and JIS K2233 specifications. The product has been formulated
from mixed polyalkylene glycol ethers and borate ester together with other high performance additives and inhibitors
which give ultimate system protection against corrosion and high temperature vapour lock.

Application

Castrol React Performance DOT 4 is designed for use in all brake systems, particularly those which are exposed to
extreme conditions such as in high performance vehicles, ontinuous braking or stop-start driving, in hilly terrain or under
racing conditions, where high brake temperatures may be generated.
Castrol React Performance DOT 4 may be used with either disc or drum brakes, including in vehicles fitted with anti-lock
braking systems (ABS). It is also suitbale for use in hydraulic clutch systems.
It is fully compatible with other fluids meeting FMVSS 116 DOT 3, DOT 4 and DOT 5.1, however to maintain the superior
performance characteristics of Castrol React Performance DOT 4, avoid mixing with other brake fluid products.
As with all brake fluids which contain glycol ethers, care should be taken to avoid spilling this product on paintwork as it
may have a damaging effect. In case of spillage rinse the affected area with water immediately. Do not wipe.

Conditions of Use

Castrol React Performance DOT 4 is suitable for use in all hydraulic brake systems in cars, motorcycles and light
commercial vehicles requiring either DOT 3 or DOT 4 performance products (excluding those systems where a mineral
oil based fluid is specified).
All conventional brake fluids deteriorate during use. It is strongly recommended that Castrol React Performance DOT 4
should be changed according to the vehicle manufacturer’s advice. In the absence of such instructions, a 2 year change
period is recommended.

Advantages

Castrol React Performance DOT 4 provides excellent high temperature performance and offers an alternative to DOT 5.1
fluids.

• High boiling point, far exceeding the requirements of DOT 3 and DOT 4 specifications
