Flex-A-Lite Releases Advanced Transmission And Engine-Oil Coolers

New from Flex-A-Lite – the Advanced Transmission and Engine-Oil Coolers. These coolers feature all-aluminum construction for better cooling without significantly decreasing oil pressure. See more details below.

Official Release:

Flex-A-Lite introduces a new line of advanced transmission and engine-oil coolers that raises the bar in performance cooling. The new coolers feature all-aluminum construction for minimum weight and maximum strength. The transmission and engine-oil series of coolers have been optimized for typical oil viscosities and uses to provide excellent efficiency: better cooling without significantly decreasing oil pressure.

Transmission Coolers
The new Flex-A-Lite transmission coolers provide class-leading cooling for the toughest environments, such as racing and towing. They are also great for daily-driven cars, trucks and Jeeps. Patented dimpled plate and fin design improves cooling efficiency. The proprietary dimpled pattern keeps the fluid mixed as it flows through the cooler, providing better heat transfer and cooling. Without this, a cool outer layer of fluid would form near the tube wall and hot fluid would pass through the middle without receiving significant cooling.

Flex-A-Lite transmission coolers provide nearly double the heat transfer compared to typical low-cost coolers. The dimples also make the plates much stronger and give the transmission cooler a 500-psi rated burst strength. The all-aluminum construction of the new Flex-A-Lite transmission coolers makes them lightweight, yet extremely strong and durable. Flex-A-Lite transmission coolers are also ideal for use as power-steering coolers.

Engine-Oil Coolers
The new Flex-A-Lite engine-oil coolers provide up to 4 times the heat rejection compared to typical low-cost coolers. In these extreme conditions, engine-coolant alone isn’t enough to protect the engine oil and internal components from premature wear or failure.

Flex-A-Lite engine-oil coolers use internal turbulator fins built into the cooling plates to keep the fluid mixed at it flows through the cooler, providing better heat transfer and cooling. Without this, a cooler outer layer of fluid would form near the tube wall and hot fluid would pass through the middle without receiving significant cooling. The Turbulizer also make the plates much stronger and give the Engine-Oil Cooler a 500-psi rated burst strength. The thick, 1 ¾-inch core minimizes oil-pressure drop through the cooler while maximizing heat transfer.

Features:

  • All-aluminum construction
  • Minimum weight and maximum strength
  • Better cooling without significantly decreasing oil pressure
