Description

This document proposes technical modifications in two of the tests included in the standard on brake fluids, i.e., the evaporation test and the corrosion test.  This document also requests comments concerning retention of the evaporation test.  A committee of the Society of Automotive Engineers, which originally developed the test, recently voted to delete the test from its standard on brake fluid.  While the administration has tentatively concluded that the test should remain in our standard, we are requesting comments on that issue.
