PROMOTIONAL ARTICLE ON BEHALF OF TEXTAR
Textar, has expanded its range of brake installation and maintenance products with the launch of Hydra Tec.
The new lubricant has been specifically created for hydraulic components in brake and clutch systems and is ideal for lubricating cylinder working surfaces, pistons and sealing elements. This makes it overall easier to install hydraulic brake components in the caliper.
Hydra Tec also protects working surfaces and other metallic components against corrosion thanks to its water-repellent properties. The formula prevents brake seizure when utilised correctly, keeping all the brake components protected and moving as required.
Scott Irwin, head of technical training at TMD Friction, said: “Hydra Tec is the ideal solution for mechanics when lubricating the caliper’s moving parts. To utilise the paste effectively, we recommend applying a thin, even layer to the working surfaces of the brakes, minus the brake pads, and avoiding using mineral oils as substitutes as the constituents can cause seals to swell and adversely affect the functions of the caliper.”
Available in 180 millilitre tubes, Hydra Tec is compatible with EPDM caoutchouc rubber and commercially available brake fluids including DOT 3, DOT 4, DOT 4LV and DOT 5.1.
Textar, which is manufactured by one of the global leaders in brake friction technology, TMD Friction, covers 99.9% of the UK car parc and includes pads, discs, accessories and brake fluid available for next day delivery.
As a global premium brand offering a selection of OE and aftermarket products, Textar has an established reputation for high quality, performance and endurance. This makes it the brand of choice for factors and garages.
