SL6 (Low Viscosity) Super Blue Brake Fluid, 1 liter

Original ATE SL.6 Brake Fluid is a low viscosity, german-manufactured premium brake fluid that provides shorter response time and the optimal choice for ESP, ABS and other electronic brake systems.

Advantages of Original ATE SL.6:
• Low viscosity (thin-bodied)
• Permits fastest response by ESP & Traction Control systems
• Optimum brake fluid for electronic brake systems like ESP, ABS, TCS, etc.
• Improved handling safety owing to speedy response of ESP
• Most vehicle manufacturers already use the low-viscosity DOT 4, Class 6 (ISO 4925) brake fluids in production cars (OEM and OES)
• The optimal brake fluid for electronic brake systems

Since the introduction of electronic systems like ABS and ESP, the brake fluid has acquired a far greater importance than it had before. The hydraulic units of these systems have a large number of small bores and ducts, some of them smaller in diameter than a human hair. Consequently, the wrong choice of brake fluid can have disastrous results for the operation of state-of-the-art brake systems.

Since the introduction of ESP systems, brake fluid must decelerate individual wheels in fractions of a second in order to stabilize the vehicle in critical situations (e.g. a skid). The development of particularly thinbodied brake fluids such as Original ATE SL.6 have been essential in ensuring the rapid response times required for ESP can be attained. The requirement for such fluids has already been incorporated into the design of the ESP system. With conventional brake fluids the system's reaction times (in critical situations) may be several times longer than with Original ATE SL.6. In practice this may mean that the system cannot stabilize the vehicle.

ATE SL.6 brake fluid meets and exceeds the requirements: FMVSS§571.116, DOT 4/DOT 3, SAE J1703 as well as ISO 4925, Class 6.
