Are you sure of this ?
I've got an old bottle of Castrol LMA sitting on the workbench that
states "minimum wet boiling point 311F", while the DOT 5 standard calls
for a minimum wet boiling point of 356F. (Don't worry, I'll never use
the LMA in a car again <g>)
And, FWIW, the "no name" silicone fluif I got from J.C. Whitney says
"minimum wet boiling point 600F" ... which is higher than the _dry_
boiling point of even racing brake fluids !
