RAVENOL Racing Brake Fluid R 340+D,GB,FR,IT,ES,AR 0.5 L
Category: Brake fluid
Item number: 1350616

RAVENOL Racing Brake Fluid R 340+ was specially developed as a high-performance brake fluid for racing applications. It is extremely resistant to thermal, chemical, and mechanical stress and also meets DOT 4 standards for optimum roadworthiness.

The High-End-Formulation is based on boric acid ester and glycol ethers and is perfected by the use of very advanced additives. It achieves maximum stability, enormous density, extreme heat resilience, minimal compressibility, optimal material compatibility and thus optimal operability and responsiveness for the driver.

RAVENOL Racing Brake Fluid R 340+ remains reliable over the entire temperature range and throughout its entire operating time. It guarantees safety even under the most extreme conditions in racing and ensures consistent braking performance.

RAVENOL Racing Brake Fluid R 340+ reaches a maximum boiling point of 342°C and a WERBP/wet boiling point of min. 210°C, making it an ideal brake fluid for racing (cars and motorcycles). The brake system responds reliably and directly at all times, even under extreme conditions or in heavy-duty use.

Application Note

To achieve optimum results the braking system should be freshly filled with RAVENOL Racing Brake Fluid R 340+ before each race. In particular when the brakes are inordinately hot or racing under tropical conditions.

Do not mix with other brake fluids!

Not suitable for vehicles that require a mineral brake fluid (LHM). Observe manufacturer's specifications. Not recommended if the components used are made of magnesium or are alloys with a high magnesium content.

FOLLOW VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS RECOMMENDATIONS WHEN ADDING BRAKE FLUID KEEP BRAKE FLUID CLEAN AND DRY. Contamination with dirt, water, petroleum products or other materials may result in brake failure or costly repairs.

STORE BRAKE FLUID ONLY IN ITS ORIGINAL CONTAINER. KEEP CONTAINER CLEAN AND TIGHTLY CLOSED TO PREVENT ADSORPTION OF WATER. CAUTION! DO NOT REFILL CONTAINER AND DO NOT USE FOR OTHER LIQUIDS.

Dispose of used brake fluid responsibly

Brake fluid damages paint work –if spilt wash off immediately with plenty of water.
