Breakfluid is not currosive to steel.
While it will strip paint, and damage chrome finishes, and it is toxic to humans, the base metal itself will not be affected by it, since it's just a mixture of some some oils, ethers, and esters. Nothing corrosive.
Remember that your car's break system has lots of metal in it.

In fact i think metal covered by break fluid wont rust at all it would actually protect it.Kronos wrote:Breakfluid is not currosive to steel.
