Where the rule specifies the cap

By Dwight Davis, Founder

Updated

On this page6
Brake fluid is the one product in this library whose container, closure, inner seal and label text are all written into a federal safety standard, down to a 15-minute immersion test for the label. The other four fluids here are each caught by a percentage threshold that triggers child-resistant packaging or specific label words.
