The condition that causes vapour locking in a brake system is
overheating of the fluid due to frequent brake application
overcooling of the brakes during high speed driving
keeping the vehicle without use for an extended period
an excessively high engine speed on a downhill road

Due to continuous application of the brake, the temperature of the brake fluid raised. So in some particular cases the brake fluid vaporizes and causes vapour lock.

Every brake fluid has designed with his stream temperature absorbing capacity when its crossed then it goes towards vapour then locking system for a break is occur.

While fluid goes to boil at a high temperature, it will formed into vapour. The density difference between the fluids causes to vapour locking in braking system.

Its a not a possible. Now a days in the ferrari car has a automatic brakes which work when any vehicle crosses very near to ferrari its brakes automatic work.

In present-day Cars Vapour Lock in Brake system is a distant possibility, might be in Heavy Commercial vehicles it can happen but not sure.

The vapor lock is due to continuous application of brake the liquid will becomes vapor, so that vapor lock will occurs.

These problems are taking place in the hilly area the car does not drive smoothly more time brakes can be held down.

Is this vapour changes to the liquid state when is cooled so that the brake gets restored to the normal state?

If there is a problem of vapor lock in break system.

Can any one tell me how to over come this problem.

Praveen said:   6 years ago
Vapor locking due to air in the system is possible and high temperature.
