Hydra tec lubricant for maintenance work and protection Textar
Available in 180ml Tube, 75ml Tube or 5ml Sachet
The Advantages of Hydra Tec:
- Facilitates the installation of hydraulic brake components
- Tested compatibility with commercially available braking fluids (DOT3, DOT4, DOT4LV, DOT5.1)
- Free of mineral oils and compatible with EPDM rubber
- In addition, running surfaces are protected against corrosion
Hydra Tec is suitable for lubricating:
- Cylinder running surfaces
- Pistons
- Sealing elements
Application:
Apply a thin layer of Hydra Tec on the marked sections.
Note:
Hydra Tec should be applied thinly and evenly.
Never use mineral oils or greases as substitutes.
Do not apply the product on friction surfaces of brake pads or brake discs.

Titanium is a very poor conductor of heat, and reduces the heat transfer by approximately 90%
The standard aluminum brake pistons are light but very heat conductive which means the thermal energy from the brake pad transfers easily to the brake fluid.
The castellated contact edge promotes airflow into the piston cavity and reduces the contact surface with the pad and thus further decreases heat transfer to the brake fluid.
We designed using advanced engineering simulations (FEA) to achieve the same weight than their aluminum counterparts while maintaining superior structural strength.
As opposed to stainless steel pistons, our titanium alloy pieces weigh the same as the original aluminum pistons; and they will never corrode and damage the seals causing the caliper to leak.
Price is per pair of pistons
**Please check the piston diameter you need as some calipers take two different sizes. Sizes shown are the piston outer diameter (OD)
