Akfix A110 Brake Cleaner in Kenya
Looking for a brake cleaner in Kenya that can remove oil, grease and brake dust without leaving a residue?
Akfix A110 is designed specifically for this type of maintenance work.
It is particularly useful for:
- Motor vehicle garages
- Automotive workshops
- Motorcycle repair shops
- Fleet maintenance
- Heavy vehicle maintenance
- Agricultural machinery maintenance
- Industrial workshops
- Car owners performing appropriate maintenance
- Mechanics and technicians
- General metal-parts cleaning
Brake and clutch components operate in environments where dust, friction material, oil contamination and other deposits can accumulate.
Simply wiping a component with a cloth may remove visible dirt but leave behind oily contamination.
That is where a dedicated brake and clutch cleaner becomes useful.
Akfix describes A110 as a powerful cleaning aerosol that removes oil, grease, dirt and dust, while helping address brake squeal and clutch slip associated with glazing and contamination.
What Is Akfix A110 Brake & Clutch Cleaner?
Akfix A110 is an aerosol brake and clutch cleaner/degreaser designed for automotive maintenance.
It is not intended to lubricate the brake system.
It does the opposite.
Its purpose is to remove contamination from suitable brake, clutch and metal components.
The formulation is designed to penetrate contaminated areas, dissolve or remove deposits and then evaporate rapidly.
According to Akfix's technical information, A110:
- Removes leaking brake fluid deposits
- Removes grease and oil
- Removes hardened contamination
- Removes brake dust
- Evaporates quickly
- Leaves no residue
- Has excellent penetration
- Is non-staining
- Is non-corrosive to metals
- Can be applied without disassembly in appropriate applications
- Uses a 360° aerosol valve with an extension tube for convenient application
That combination makes it particularly useful when a mechanic needs to clean a component efficiently without setting up a complicated cleaning process.
Why Brake Cleaning Matters
Brake systems depend on controlled friction.
The brake pad or shoe must interact with the appropriate braking surface to generate the friction required to slow the vehicle.
Contamination can interfere with that process.
Oil, grease, brake fluid and accumulated deposits are not simply cosmetic problems.
They can affect the condition and behaviour of friction surfaces.
This is why cleaning should be treated as part of proper brake maintenance rather than an optional detailing exercise.
Akfix specifically positions A110 for removing contamination from brake and clutch components and notes its use in reducing brake squeal and clutch chatter associated with contamination and glazing.
Important: A brake cleaner is a cleaning product, not a substitute for diagnosing worn, damaged or defective braking components. If a brake system has a mechanical or hydraulic fault, cleaning alone will not repair it.
Akfix A110 Brake Cleaner for Mechanics
For a mechanic, time matters.
A vehicle in a workshop is not generating revenue while it sits waiting for a simple cleaning operation.
A good brake cleaner should therefore do three things well:
Penetrate contamination.
Remove contamination.
Evaporate without leaving an unwanted residue.
Akfix A110 is designed around these requirements.
The aerosol format also makes it easy to direct the cleaner at specific areas rather than handling a large container of solvent.
The supplied extension tube helps direct the spray into harder-to-reach areas, while the 360° valve allows application in different orientations.
For workshops handling multiple vehicles every day, this can make routine cleaning faster and more convenient.
What Can Akfix A110 Clean?
Akfix specifies A110 for cleaning and degreasing a range of brake and clutch components.
Brake linings
Brake linings can accumulate dust and contamination during operation.
Brake drums
Drum brake components can collect brake dust and other deposits inside the assembly.
Brake cylinders
Suitable external cleaning can help remove contamination from accessible surfaces.
Brake shoes
Brake shoes can accumulate friction dust and contamination.
Disc brake pads
A110 can be used for appropriate cleaning and degreasing of brake-pad-related components.
Brake discs
Brake discs may become contaminated during servicing or from contact with oils and other substances.
Calipers
Calipers can collect dirt, brake dust and oily contamination.
Springs
Springs and other exposed brake hardware can also be cleaned where appropriate.
Clutch discs
A110 is also specified for clutch-disc cleaning and degreasing.
Akfix Brake Cleaner for Disc Brakes
Disc brake systems are particularly exposed to dust and contamination.
During brake operation, friction material wears and produces dust.
Additional contamination can occur during servicing.
For example, a mechanic working around suspension, wheel hubs or other components may accidentally introduce grease or oil onto a braking surface.
That contamination should not simply be ignored.
Akfix A110 provides a dedicated cleaning solution for suitable disc brake components.
The product is designed to evaporate quickly and leave no residue, which is important when cleaning friction-related components.
Akfix A110 for Brake Pads and Discs
Brake pads and discs should be treated as friction components, not ordinary painted or lubricated mechanical parts.
The objective is not to make them slippery.
The objective is to remove unwanted contamination.
Akfix A110 can be used as part of an appropriate cleaning process for brake pads and discs.
A mechanic may use brake cleaner during:
- Brake-pad replacement
- Brake-disc replacement
- Brake servicing
- Brake inspection
- Workshop cleaning
- Removal of accidental oil contamination
- General brake maintenance
However, cleaning should always be performed according to appropriate workshop procedures.
Akfix A110 Brake Cleaner for Motorcycles
Motorcycle workshops can also benefit from keeping a dedicated brake cleaner available.
Motorcycle brake systems can accumulate brake dust, dirt and contamination just like automotive systems.
A110 can be useful for appropriate cleaning of:
- Motorcycle brake discs
- Calipers
- Brake pads
- Springs
- Metal brake components
Its aerosol format is particularly convenient for smaller mechanical assemblies and difficult-to-reach areas.
The product is also suitable for other automotive and machinery maintenance applications where its technical specifications permit. Akfix identifies applications across automotive, heavy-vehicle and machinery maintenance.
Akfix A110 for Clutch Cleaning
The product is called Brake & Clutch Cleaner for a reason.
It is not only a brake cleaner.
Clutch components can also be affected by contamination.
Oil and grease on friction surfaces can interfere with normal clutch operation.
Akfix identifies A110 for cleaning and degreasing clutch discs.
For mechanics, this provides a single aerosol solution for two important friction-related maintenance areas.
Brake system
Remove appropriate contamination from brake components.
Clutch system
Clean suitable clutch components where required.
This makes A110 a practical workshop consumable rather than a product limited to brake servicing.
Can Brake Cleaner Remove Grease?
Yes.
Akfix specifically states that A110 removes grease, oil, leaking brake fluid deposits and hardened contamination from brake and clutch components.
This is one of the main reasons to use a dedicated brake cleaner rather than relying on water or a general-purpose household cleaner.
Grease and oil contamination require a cleaning product capable of breaking down and removing those deposits.
However, the source of contamination should also be investigated.
If fresh oil or brake fluid is repeatedly appearing on a brake component, simply cleaning it is not a permanent solution.
The underlying leak needs to be identified and repaired.
Clean the contamination, but fix the cause.
That is the difference between temporary cleaning and proper maintenance.
Does Akfix A110 Leave Residue?
Akfix states that A110 evaporates quickly and leaves no residue when used as intended.
This is an important property for a brake cleaner.
A product that leaves an oily film behind would defeat the purpose of cleaning friction components.
A110 is designed to evaporate after application, leaving the cleaned surface free from the cleaner itself.
Fast-Evaporating Brake Cleaner
Workshop productivity is one of the strongest reasons to use an aerosol brake cleaner.
The cleaner is sprayed onto the contaminated component.
It penetrates the deposits.
The contamination is removed.
The solvent then evaporates.
Akfix specifically describes A110 as a quick-evaporating, residue-free cleaner.
This makes it suitable for situations where the mechanic needs to clean a component and proceed with the next stage of maintenance without waiting for a water-based cleaning process to dry.
Akfix A110 500ml Aerosol
Each can contains 500ml of product.
The aerosol is equipped with a 360° spray valve and extension tube, allowing greater flexibility when cleaning difficult areas. Akfix lists the standard packaging as 500ml, with 12 cans per box.
For a professional workshop, the 500ml aerosol format offers a convenient balance between portability and usable quantity.
It can be stored with other workshop consumables and taken directly to the vehicle or machine being serviced.
Why Buy Akfix A110 Instead of Using General-Purpose Cleaner?
This is an important distinction.
A brake system is not the place to experiment with random cleaning chemicals.
Brake components have specific functional requirements.
A product intended specifically for brake and clutch cleaning is preferable when the job requires removal of oil, grease, dust and other contamination from suitable friction and metal components.
Akfix has specifically formulated A110 around this use case.
It is designed for:
Cleaning
Degreasing
Rapid evaporation
Residue-free results
Automotive maintenance
Rather than trying to make one household cleaner perform ten unrelated jobs, use a product designed for the actual maintenance task.
Akfix A110 vs General Degreaser
A general degreaser can be useful for many workshop cleaning tasks.
But a brake cleaner has a different job.
For brake and clutch maintenance, the cleaning product needs to remove contamination without leaving an unwanted film.
Akfix A110 is specifically designed for this application and is described by the manufacturer as non-staining and non-corrosive to metals.
This makes it a more appropriate choice for suitable brake and clutch cleaning applications.
Where Can You Use Akfix A110?
Although its primary positioning is brake and clutch cleaning, Akfix identifies a broad set of automotive and mechanical applications.
It can be relevant to:
Cars
Routine brake maintenance and appropriate mechanical cleaning.
Motorcycles
Cleaning suitable brake components and mechanical parts.
Trucks
Brake and mechanical maintenance on heavy vehicles.
Agricultural machinery
Cleaning suitable metal components during maintenance.
Industrial machines
Degreasing appropriate metal mechanical parts.
Workshops
General maintenance cleaning where the product's technical requirements are met.
Akfix's own product information identifies automotive, heavy vehicles, agricultural machines and machinery as relevant application environments.
Akfix A110 for Heavy Vehicles
Heavy vehicles operate under demanding conditions.
Brake systems can accumulate significant amounts of dust and contamination during normal operation.
For fleet maintenance teams, having brake cleaner readily available can simplify maintenance work.
A110 can be used for suitable cleaning and degreasing of specified brake components on heavy vehicles.
For fleet operators, the commercial benefit is straightforward:
Less time spent cleaning manually.
More controlled maintenance procedures.
A standardised workshop consumable.
A dedicated product for brake and clutch cleaning.
Akfix A110 for Automotive Workshops in Kenya
Kenyan mechanics and automotive workshops operate in environments where dust, road grime, oil and grease are common.
That makes proper component cleaning particularly relevant.
A brake cleaner can be useful during servicing because it gives technicians a purpose-built product for removing contamination rather than relying on improvised cleaning methods.
For Nairobi workshops, garages and mechanics, Akfix A110 Brake & Clutch Cleaner 500ml provides a convenient aerosol format for routine maintenance.
Startcore Ventures Limited supplies Akfix products to customers looking for professional construction, automotive and industrial chemical solutions in Kenya.
How to Use Akfix A110 Brake Cleaner
Always read the product label and manufacturer's technical/safety information before use.
For a typical appropriate cleaning operation:
1. Allow components to cool
Do not spray brake or clutch components while they are extremely hot.
Akfix's safety documentation specifically warns against spraying onto extremely hot brakes and clutches.
2. Identify the contaminated area
Determine where oil, grease, brake dust or other contamination has accumulated.
3. Apply the cleaner
Spray the product onto the appropriate component.
The extension tube can help direct the spray into harder-to-reach areas.
4. Allow contamination to dissolve and run off
Heavy contamination may require appropriate repeated cleaning.
5. Allow the cleaner to evaporate
A110 is designed to evaporate rapidly and leave no residue.
6. Inspect the component
Cleaning should be followed by inspection.
If the component is worn or damaged, cleaning does not make it serviceable.
Do You Need to Remove the Brake Components Before Cleaning?
Akfix states that A110 can be applied without disassembly, which can save time and reduce maintenance costs.
However, whether a component should be removed depends on the maintenance procedure being performed.
Do not interpret “can be applied without disassembly” as meaning that every brake-cleaning job should be performed without dismantling the brake assembly.
Professional inspection and servicing procedures should always take priority.
If the component needs to be removed to inspect wear, damage or mechanical condition, it should be removed.
Does Akfix A110 Reduce Brake Squeal?
Akfix states that A110 can help reduce disc-brake squeal and clutch chatter associated with contamination and glazing.
But this needs to be understood correctly.
Brake noise can have many causes.
Contamination is only one possible cause.
Other causes can include:
- Worn brake components
- Incorrect installation
- Glazing
- Mechanical vibration
- Uneven surfaces
- Hardware problems
- Incorrect component selection
Therefore, A110 should not be marketed as a universal cure for brake noise.
If contamination is contributing to the noise, cleaning may help.
If the underlying problem is mechanical, the brake system needs proper diagnosis.
Can Akfix A110 Fix Brake Problems?
No.
This distinction is critical.
A110 is a cleaner, not a brake repair product.
It can remove contamination.
It cannot repair:
- Worn brake pads
- Cracked brake discs
- Damaged calipers
- Hydraulic leaks
- Faulty wheel cylinders
- Damaged brake hoses
- Mechanical defects
If a vehicle has poor braking performance, unusual brake behaviour or a warning light, professional diagnosis is required.
Use A110 as part of appropriate maintenance—not as a substitute for repair.
Akfix A110 Brake Cleaner for Professional Maintenance
A workshop's consumables should be selected according to the jobs technicians actually perform.
Brake cleaner is one of those products that earns its place because it solves a recurring maintenance problem.
The need is simple:
Oil + grease + brake dust + contamination = clean the component before continuing the job.
A110 gives the technician a ready-to-use aerosol solution.

Why Brake Cleaning Matters
Brake systems depend on controlled friction.
The brake pad or shoe must interact with the appropriate braking surface to generate the friction required to slow the vehicle.
Contamination can interfere with that process.
Oil, grease, brake fluid and accumulated deposits are not simply cosmetic problems.
They can affect the condition and behaviour of friction surfaces.
This is why cleaning should be treated as part of proper brake maintenance rather than an optional detailing exercise.
Akfix specifically positions A110 for removing contamination from brake and clutch components and notes its use in reducing brake squeal and clutch chatter associated with contamination and glazing.
Important: A brake cleaner is a cleaning product, not a substitute for diagnosing worn, damaged or defective braking components. If a brake system has a mechanical or hydraulic fault, cleaning alone will not repair it.

5. Allow the cleaner to evaporate
A110 is designed to evaporate rapidly and leave no residue.
6. Inspect the component
Cleaning should be followed by inspection.
If the component is worn or damaged, cleaning does not make it serviceable.
Do You Need to Remove the Brake Components Before Cleaning?
Akfix states that A110 can be applied without disassembly, which can save time and reduce maintenance costs.
However, whether a component should be removed depends on the maintenance procedure being performed.
Do not interpret “can be applied without disassembly” as meaning that every brake-cleaning job should be performed without dismantling the brake assembly.
Professional inspection and servicing procedures should always take priority.
If the component needs to be removed to inspect wear, damage or mechanical condition, it should be removed.
Does Akfix A110 Reduce Brake Squeal?
Akfix states that A110 can help reduce disc-brake squeal and clutch chatter associated with contamination and glazing.
But this needs to be understood correctly.
Brake noise can have many causes.
Contamination is only one possible cause.
Other causes can include:
- Worn brake components
- Incorrect installation
- Glazing
- Mechanical vibration
- Uneven surfaces
- Hardware problems
- Incorrect component selection
Therefore, A110 should not be marketed as a universal cure for brake noise.
If contamination is contributing to the noise, cleaning may help.
If the underlying problem is mechanical, the brake system needs proper diagnosis.
Can Akfix A110 Fix Brake Problems?
No.
This distinction is critical.
A110 is a cleaner, not a brake repair product.
It can remove contamination.
It cannot repair:
- Worn brake pads
- Cracked brake discs
- Damaged calipers
- Hydraulic leaks
- Faulty wheel cylinders
- Damaged brake hoses
- Mechanical defects
If a vehicle has poor braking performance, unusual brake behaviour or a warning light, professional diagnosis is required.
Use A110 as part of appropriate maintenance—not as a substitute for repair.
Akfix A110 Brake Cleaner for Professional Maintenance
A workshop's consumables should be selected according to the jobs technicians actually perform.
Brake cleaner is one of those products that earns its place because it solves a recurring maintenance problem.
The need is simple:
Oil + grease + brake dust + contamination = clean the component before continuing the job.
A110 gives the technician a ready-to-use aerosol solution.
At KSh 850 inclusive of VAT per 500ml can, Startcore offers a practical option for individual mechanics, workshops and businesses that want to keep dedicated brake cleaner available.
