Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 116, - Motor Vehicle Brake Fluids, sets forth the performance and labeling requirements for hydraulic brake fluids and their containers. It includes the testing provisions which are necessary to determine if a brake fluid meets the performance requirements for safe motor vehicle use. FMVSS No. 106, - Brake Hoses, sets forth the performance and labeling requirements for three different types of brake hoses: hydraulic, air, vacuum and plastic air brake tubing. Description: The objective of this requirement is to seek the services of an independent laboratory or laboratories to procure automotive equipment for compliance testing and to provide test and inspection services so that the Government can determine if the equipment designed for use on motor vehicles comply with the requirements of FMVSS No. 106 and FMVSS No. 116. This requirement will include six (6) tasks: (1) Perform Test Procedures, (2) Test Item/Models, (3) Measurement and Test Equipment, (4) Conduct Deviations from Test Procedures, (5) Storage of Test Items, and (6) Prepare Test Schedule.
