It removes oil, grease, brake dust, and contamination from disc brake rotors, pad backing plates, and callipers — the most common causes of brake squeal, reduced braking power, and inconsistent feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003etriple solvent formula\u003c\/strong\u003e features a \u003cstrong\u003eslower evaporation rate\u003c\/strong\u003e than standard brake cleaners, giving the solvents more time to penetrate and dissolve contamination before evaporating — resulting in a more thorough clean than fast-evaporating alternatives. Apply to the rotor, pad backing plate, and calliper body, allow to dwell briefly, then wipe away or allow to evaporate completely before riding. Components are left completely dry and residue-free. For anti-seize protection on brake pad backing plates to reduce squeal, see the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/fenwicks-copper-anti-seize\"\u003eFenwick's Copper Anti-Seize\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/products\/fenwicks-lubrication-ptfe-anti-seize-p114731\"\u003ePTFE Anti-Seize\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant safety note:\u003c\/strong\u003e always allow the cleaner to evaporate completely before riding.

The 200ml is more compact and portable, ideal for kit bags and travel or occasional use. The \u003ca href=\"\/products\/fenwicks-disc-brake-cleaner-500ml\"\u003e500ml\u003c\/a\u003e is better value per ml and more practical for regular home workshop use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMy brakes are squealing — will this fix it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrake squeal caused by contamination (oil, grease, or brake dust on the rotor or pad surface) can often be resolved by cleaning with disc brake cleaner. Apply to the rotor and the pad backing plate (with pads removed from the calliper), allow to evaporate, and reinstall. If the pads have absorbed oil into the friction material itself, cleaning won't help — the pads will need to be replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it safe on all disc brake systems?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — the formula is suitable for most disc brake materials including steel and aluminium rotors, and aluminium callipers. Avoid painted surfaces, plastic components, and prolonged contact with rubber seals and hoses. Allow to evaporate completely before riding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I apply it correctly?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRemove the wheel if possible for easier access. Spray onto the rotor, allow to dwell for a moment, then wipe with a clean lint-free cloth or allow to evaporate. For callipers, spray into the calliper body and wipe away. For brake pads, remove from the calliper, spray the backing plate, and allow to dry completely before reinstalling. Never ride until the cleaner has fully evaporated.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fenwick's","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45472126664879,"sku":"FEDISC20","price":3.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/2003\/4223\/files\/1482398516-69063200.jpg?v=1768519799","url":"https:\/\/www.swinnertoncycles.co.uk\/products\/fenwicks-disc-brake-cleaner-200ml-triple-solvent-formula-compact-format","provider":"Swinnerton Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
