Low VOC Brake Cleaner Spray is a type of brake cleaning product specifically formulated to emit fewer volatile organic compounds (VOCs) compared to standard solvent-based cleaners. VOCs contribute to air pollution and smog formation, so low VOC brake cleaners are designed to comply with environmental regulations—especially in regions with strict air quality standards—while still delivering effective cleaning performance for brake components.
🔬 Key Properties:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| VOC Content | Significantly lower than traditional formulas (measured in g/L) |
| Environmental Impact | Reduced emissions; more eco-friendly and often CARB/EPA compliant |
| Cleaning Power | Effective at removing grease, oil, brake dust, and contaminants |
| Residue | Typically residue-free after evaporation |
| Evaporation Rate | May be slightly slower than standard formulas due to less volatile solvents |
| Flammability | Can be flammable, though many use safer solvent alternatives |
| Odor | Often milder than high-VOC counterparts |
| Regulatory Status | Designed to meet CARB, EPA, and local VOC regulations |
🧰 Applications:
-
Automotive brake systems: Calipers, drums, rotors, pads
-
Industrial machinery brake maintenance
-
Fleet and heavy-duty vehicle maintenance
-
Pre-inspection or assembly cleaning
-
Environments where air quality regulations must be met (e.g., California or EU markets)
-
Facilities striving to reduce environmental impact
