Key Features of Brake Fluid DOT 3:

  • High Boiling Points: DOT 3 brake fluid provides excellent high-temperature stability, ensuring reliable braking performance even under extreme heat generated during braking.

  • Low Temperature Performance: It remains fluid at low temperatures, preventing brake failure in colder climates.

  • Anti-Corrosion Properties: Contains additives that protect against rust and corrosion in the brake system components, such as the master cylinder, brake lines, and calipers.

  • Moisture Absorption: Designed to absorb moisture over time, preventing vapor lock and maintaining reliable braking performance. However, regular replacement is essential to maintain optimal performance.

  • Compatibility: Compatible with most automotive hydraulic braking systems that require DOT 3 fluid.


Brake Fluid DOT 3 is commonly used in light-duty vehicles and provides safe and effective braking performance in a wide range of temperatures and conditions. It’s essential for maintaining the integrity and functionality of the braking system, particularly in systems that experience frequent braking cycles.
