About the Universal Air Crossflow Radiator Line
The Crossflow Radiator line by Universal Air features radiators designed with a horizontal flow of coolant, which improves heat exchange efficiency compared to traditional downflow radiators. This design is particularly effective in heavy-duty applications such as Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks, where maintaining optimal engine temperature is critical for performance and longevity. The RA13296C model is part of this line, offering a balance of durability and cooling capacity tailored to these vehicles.
Product Description and Application
The RA13296C radiator is engineered specifically for Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 trucks, including the Ram 4000 series. Its crossflow configuration allows coolant to flow horizontally through the radiator core, maximizing surface area exposure to airflow and improving heat rejection. This radiator is constructed to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty use, ensuring consistent engine cooling during towing, hauling, and extended operation. It serves as a direct replacement part, matching OEM specifications for fit and function.
