Revised Standard from Last Update.

1. SCOPE

This standard prescribes the requirements and methods of sampling and test for non-petroleum type heavy duty automotive hydraulic brake fluid for use in hydraulic brake systems fitted with drum, disc or either type of brakes at wide ambient temperatures. These fluids are designed for use in braking systems fitted with rubber cups and seals made from styrene butadiene rubber (SBR).
