Motorex DOT 5.1 – High-Performance Brake Fluid for Maximum Control
When you're descending steep trails or navigating technical paths, your brakes are subjected to extreme stress. The Motorex DOT 5.1 brake fluid is the answer to the highest demands for temperature stability and safety. This fluid has been specifically developed for hydraulic brake systems (SRAM, Avid, Hope, Hayes, etc.) that operate with DOT media. With its extremely high boiling point, it provides you with the necessary reserves to ensure that your brakes remain firm even under continuous load.
Safety Through Extremely High Boiling Point
The greatest risk on long descents is known as brake fade. This occurs when the brake fluid heats up so much that gas bubbles can form, leading to a sudden loss of braking power. The Motorex DOT 5.1 counters this: its exceptionally high wet boiling point ensures that the fluid remains stable even after prolonged use and minor water absorption. The result is a crystal-clear, defined pressure point that you can rely on in every turn.
Perfect Viscosity and Long-Lasting Technology
The Motorex DOT 5.1 impresses with optimized flow characteristics (viscosity). This means for you: Your brake responds instantly and can be finely dosed. At the same time, the special formulation protects the seals and pistons in your brake system from premature wear and corrosion. The 250 ml can is the ideal workshop size – sufficient for a complete fluid exchange at the front and rear brakes, including the bleeding process.
Important Application Notes
To ensure your brake system functions optimally, please observe the following points:
Compatibility: This product is exclusively suitable for systems designed for DOT 4 or DOT 5.1. It must not be used in mineral oil systems (e.g., Magura or Shimano).
Mixability: DOT 5.1 can be easily mixed with DOT 3 and DOT 4. Important: It must never be mixed with DOT 5 (silicone-based)!
Handling: DOT fluid is aggressive towards paints. When filling, it is best to use a cloth and clean any splashes immediately with water.
