Boiling Point of Brake Fluids According to FMVVS No. 116 (DOT)
During braking, the heat produced from friction can warm the brake cylinders and elevate the temperature of the brake fluid. If the boiling point (BP) of the brake fluid is exceeded, vapor bubbles form in the brake fluid, which, unlike liquids, are compressible. This, in turn, affects the performance of the braking system. Thus, it is important for brake fluid to remain below its boiling point, especially when subject to higher temperatures created by braking.
