Detailed Product Description

The Global Parts radiator 13255C is engineered with a 1-row aluminum core measuring 14.63 inches in height, 23.63 inches in width, and 0.63 inches thick. The aluminum core material ensures efficient heat transfer, while the plastic tanks reduce weight and resist corrosion. This radiator is designed with a cross flow configuration, which allows coolant to flow horizontally through the core, improving heat dissipation and overall cooling efficiency.

Additionally, this radiator includes an integrated transmission oil cooler, featuring hose clamp fittings spaced 8.86 inches apart with a fitting diameter of 0.39 inches. This integration helps maintain optimal transmission fluid temperatures, which is critical for the longevity and performance of the Scion tC’s transmission system. The inlet and outlet diameters of 1.38 inches and 1.4 inches respectively ensure proper coolant circulation within the engine cooling system.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replaces worn or damaged radiators in Scion tC vehicles
• Addresses overheating issues caused by inefficient or leaking radiators
• Supports transmission cooling to prevent transmission fluid overheating
• Improves engine temperature regulation for consistent vehicle performance
• Resolves coolant leaks related to cracked or corroded radiator cores or tanks

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Global Parts radiator 13255C, ensure the radiator core dimensions and hose connections match the vehicle specifications. Properly secure hose clamp fittings on the transmission oil cooler lines to prevent leaks. It is recommended to flush the cooling system before installation to remove debris and contaminants. Verify that the radiator is mounted securely and that all inlet and outlet hoses are free of kinks or obstructions to maintain optimal coolant flow.
