Automotive Brake Fluid Market - Global Industry Insights, Trends, Size, Opportunity Analysis, 2018–2026
Automotive brake fluid, also known as hydraulic fluid, is a non-compressible substance used in hydraulic clutch and hydraulic brake applications in motorcycles, light trucks, automobiles, and bicycles, among other applications. Automotive brake fluid is used to transfer force and apply pressure on brakes and increase the brake force. This fluid is thus, essential for the smooth functioning of breaks in vehicles, operating under high pressure and temperature. Automotive brake fluid is composed of various types of glycols with low freezing point and designed not to damage rubber components in the braking system.

Automotive brake fluids are renewed or changed every 1 to 2 years and monthly in racing automotive to improve the safety and durability of the vehicle, which creates a major market for automotive brake fluid across the globe. Growing number of automotive OEMs and car service providers have resulted in the growth of technological advancement and product innovations of brake fluids by core companies such as BASF, Castrol, Bosch, Dow Automotive Systems, and Exxon Mobil along with others. Owing to these factors, the global automotive brake fluid market is expected to increase at a significant growth rate over the forecast period (2017-2025). Automotive brake fluid is hydroscopic, meaning absorption of moisture is a natural property of brake fluid due to which corrosion is accumulated, serving as a restraint for the automotive brake fluid market. These restraints are significantly curtailed through product innovations by market leaders. For instance, a new product by Castrol, which consist of polyglycol type brake fluid, provides high braking performance under normal driving conditions and is commercialized under the product name – Castrol brake fluid dot 4. The DOT (department of transportation) is categorized in automotive brake fluids by its boiling point and chemical composition as DOT 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 5.1 respectively. Gylcol fluids are used in 99% of vehicles and DOT 3 is majorly used due to its low content of water, which affects the brake system and reduces corrosion. Brake
