This SAE Standard describes the performance and part requirements for elastomeric seals used in highway vehicle disc brake calipers. Seals covered by this specification may be the solid section type (square, rectangular, O-ring, etc.) mounted stationary in the cylinder bore or on the movable piston. The specification contains the following major sections:
a
Resistance to Fluid at Elevated Temperature—Physical Stability [loose parts in 120 °C ± 2 °C (248 °F ± 3.6 °F) brake fluid for 70 h]
b
Resistance to Fluid at Elevated Temperature—Precipitation Characteristics [loose parts in 120 °C ± 2 °C (248 °F ± 3.6 °F) brake fluid for 70 h]
c
Resistance to Elevated Temperatures in Dry Air [loose parts in 175 °C ± 2 °C (347 °F ± 3.6 °F) air for 22 h]
d
Ambient Temperature Stroking Test [tested in brake assembly for 500 000 cycles to 7 MPa ± 0.3 MPa (1000 psi ± 50 psi)]
e
High Temperature Stroking Test [tested in brake assembly for 70 h (70 000 strokes) at 120 °C ± 2 °C (248 °F ± 3.6 °F) to 7 MPa ± 0.3 MPa (1000 psi ± 50 psi)]
f
Low Temperature Leakage Test [tested in brake assembly for 120 h at –40 to –43 °C (–40 to –45.4 °F)]
g
Cycling Humidity Storage Corrosion Test [tested in brake assembly for 14 days at 95% humidity cycling between 21 to 46 °C (69.8 to 114.8 °F)]
Rationale
Sections 2.1.1 and 4 of this specification have been updated to create a reference to SAE J1703 and SAE J1704 where previous revisions listed the referee brake fluid formulation for DOT 3 fluid only. The industry is trending towards use of both DOT 3 and DOT 4 for global applications, and the formulation of the referee fluids is changing more rapidly. A direct reference to the brake fluid specifications will provide more accurate information as these referee brake fluid formulations change.
Develop, improve, upgrade and/or maintain uniform and comprehensive standards, recommended practices, information reports and/or requirements that represent and permit uniform testing for hydraulic brake actuation components and systems. They should enhance development, evaluation, and optimization with accelerated testing methods that will provide needed products which maximize safety. They shall provide cost-effective components with essential quality, performance, and longevity for brake and interrelated system operation that will encompass the global automotive brake industry.
* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.

SAE MOBILUS® Search Tips
Please note: All terms not contained within quotes, will be evaluated using the OR operator. This means that your search results will contain all results that contain ANY of the entered terms.
AND, OR, NOT
SAE MOBILUS supports the use of the AND, OR and NOT BOOLEAN operators ONLY function with the Advanced Search.
Wild Cards
Using the asterisk, ( * ) allows you to search for a partial word. For example, entering a keyword search of aero* will search for any word beginning with aero.
Using the question mark, ( ? ) allows you to search for a word with a single character wildcard. For example, searching for t?re would match both tire and tyre
Using Quotes
Words in double quotes " " are treated as a phrase. Conducting a search for "heat model" will return all results in which the exact phrase "heat model" is found, while "heat modeling" would NOT be included.
A term combined with a phrase will be joined with an OR operator.
Searching for Standards
When searching for a standard please use the entire Document Number assigned, which includes the abbreviation. A space can be used, or omitted between the abbreviation and number.
