TYC Radiator Product Line Details
The TYC Radiator line focuses on delivering quality cooling components that meet or exceed OEM specifications. This product line emphasizes durable aluminum cores and integrated transmission oil coolers where applicable, ensuring compatibility and performance for specific vehicle applications such as the Subaru Legacy. The TYC Radiator 1839 exemplifies this approach by combining efficient heat dissipation with a concentric oil cooler design.
Technical Description and Features
This radiator features a single-row tube design with a crossflow configuration, allowing coolant to flow horizontally through the core for effective heat exchange. The aluminum core measures 14.21 inches in height, 26.5 inches in length, and 0.63 inches in thickness, providing a balance of cooling surface area and compact size. The fin count of 64 per 4 inches and fin wave height of 0.35 inches contribute to improved airflow and heat dissipation. Both the inlet and outlet connections use hose clamps with a 1.50-inch diameter, facilitating straightforward installation and secure hose attachment. Additionally, the integrated concentric transmission oil cooler supports transmission fluid temperature regulation, enhancing overall vehicle performance.
Common Applications and Problem Resolution
- Replacement for leaking or damaged radiators in Subaru Legacy vehicles
- Addresses overheating issues caused by inefficient cooling systems
- Resolves transmission fluid overheating with built-in oil cooler
- Improves engine temperature stability under normal and heavy driving conditions
- Restores proper coolant flow and heat dissipation in aging radiators
Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure compatibility with your specific Subaru Legacy model before installation. The hose clamp inlet and outlet connections require standard 1.50-inch hoses. Inspect and replace any worn or damaged hoses and clamps during installation to prevent leaks. Properly bleed the cooling system after installation to remove air pockets and maintain optimal cooling efficiency.
