BS AU 229:1989 is a British Standard that specifies graphical symbols used to designate different types of brake fluids in road vehicles. Brake fluids are essential components in the hydraulic braking systems of road vehicles, transferring force from the brake pedal to the brake calipers or wheel cylinders, which then apply pressure to the brake pads or shoes to stop the vehicle. Different types of brake fluids are available, each designed for specific performance characteristics and compatibility with vehicle braking systems. This standard, BS AU 229:1989, provides graphical symbols that are used to represent and differentiate between various types of brake fluids. These symbols serve as a visual indicator to help identify the type of brake fluid recommended or required for use in a particular vehicle's braking system. By standardizing graphical symbols for brake fluid types, BS AU 229:1989 helps ensure clear and consistent communication regarding brake fluid specifications and requirements in road vehicles. This facilitates proper selection, usage, and maintenance of brake fluids, contributing to the safety and reliability of vehicle braking systems.
