This SAE Recommended Practice applies to valve assemblies that are used on passenger car and light truck braking systems utilizing motor vehicle hydraulic brake fluids. The procedure (SAE J1118) and these requirements (SAE J1137) were developed for brake fluids conforming to SAE J1703 and FMVSS 116 (DOT 3) requirements; however, it may be utilized for valves which use DOT 4 or DOT 5 brake fluid. These requirements are applicable to differential warning, metering hold off, bypass function, or proportioning type valves or any combination thereof.

To assess the strength and durability for hydraulic brake components as a function of test conditions. These conditions may include: braking torque, hill-holding, braking forces, hydraulic pressure, brake temperatures, environmental and corrosion effects, vibration, and time. This RP includes a systematic reference to other test methods and provides new test methods for durability life prediction based on the VDA 311 for operating strength for brake calipers. When using AK load collectives from vehicle testing for life prediction, the nominal vehicle life corresponds to 300000 km. Braking torques and forces take into account inputs from non-ABS, ABS, EPB, and ESC systems. It also applies to gasoline, diesel, hybrid, and electric vehicles. This RP applies to vehicles below 4540 kg of GVWR.

This SAE Standard covers molded rubber boots used on disc brake pistons to prevent the entrance of dirt and moisture which could cause corrosion and otherwise impair caliper operation. The specification includes performance tests of brake piston boots of both plain and insert types under specified conditions and does not include requirements relating to chemical composition or physical properties of the rubber compound. Further, it does not cover the strength of the adhesion of rubber to the insert material where an insert is used. The rubber material used in these boots is classified as suitable for operating in a temperature range of -40 to + 120 °C ± 2 °C (-40 to + 248 °F ± 3.6 °F).
