The Phoenix Systems Ford-branded Brake Fluid Test Strips alerts users to the degree of contamination, if any, in brake lines. Though automobile brake lines are made of steel their bores are coated with copper, which eventually deteriorates and contaminates the fluid. The Brake Fluid Test Strip takes seconds to conduct, and provides proof of a needed brake fluid service. The simple color test takes approximately 60 seconds to mature, providing a visual indication of brake fluid health. Changing brake fluid when appropriate halts corrosion, extends the life of brake parts and improves safety.
