We carry a wide range of fin and tube profiles that can meet the need of most of the heat exchangers you will see today. Also, we’ve developed our own Ultimate Duty C-Bar Design which is the old bar and plate significantly improved. In a traditional bar and plate design the supporting tube plates are created from five different components brazed together. This leaves many points of failure inside the cooler. In our C-Bar design, we’ve eliminated these braze points by using an extruded tube plate that can handle hundreds of pounds of pressure over typical bar and plate and eliminates the failure points inherent in the traditional design. Our C-Bar design is stronger and more reliable than the traditional bar and plate because of this. If you need a custom build that can handle high pressure, we can apply our C-Bar design to your specific application.
The radiator works great!!! Can’t thank you enough for the wonderful job you folks did. I’m going to let everyone with the Studebaker Forum know.
What are the Different Types of Antifreeze and Can I Mix Them? Recently we discussed the benefits of antifreeze in our "Do I need Antifreeze in Warm Weather?" article. We explained that antifreeze not only lowers the freezing point of the water in your cooling system it also raises the boiling point and helps inhibit corrosion. However, there was one critical item we did not discuss: the different types of antifreeze. Before you grab that jug of green liquid to pour in your system, you better make sure it's the same as what's there already. Read more
How Does a Radiator Pressure Cap Work? Most people can find the radiator pressure cap on their vehicle, but do you know how it works? Perhaps you've heard others discuss using a higher pressure cap for various reasons and wondered if the cap was for more than just show. The fact is radiator caps play an important role in a pressurized cooling system and there are many factors that you must keep in mind when making changes to that system. We'll discuss how a pressure cap works and how it can both improve or hurt your system. Read more
Do I Need Antifreeze in Warm Weather? Having the word "freeze" in its name leads many people to conclude that antifreeze is only for the winter months. You may be tempted to only add water to your engine's coolant system during the summer, but if you do, you're likely to cause significant damage to your vehicle. Read more
Is a Vehicle Thermostat Necessary? There are many owners and even mechanics who have either removed the engine thermostat or swapped out the original for one that opens at a lower temperature in an effort to help the engine run cooler, but is this a good idea? We'll take a look at what the purpose of the thermostat is and some of the reasons why they are removed. Read more
Is a Radiator Fan Shroud Necessary? For seasoned auto mechanics and enthusiasts, this question needs no answer; however, for those new to the world of auto mechanics or just trying to save some money by doing repairs themselves, you may find yourself asking this very question. Everyone likes saving money, but before you remove that shroud or neglect repairing it, let's take a look at why it is there by asking a couple of questions. Read more
