Detailed Product Description
The URO 1162000522 engine cooling fan clutch is engineered to meet the cooling requirements of the Mercedes-Benz 300SEL. Its aluminum construction provides a balance of lightweight strength and thermal conductivity, essential for managing engine heat. The clutch operates on a thermal principle, engaging the fan when engine temperature rises and disengaging when cooling is sufficient, which helps improve fuel efficiency and reduce engine wear.
With six mounting holes and a flange attachment method, this fan clutch installs securely onto the vehicle’s cooling fan assembly. The clockwise rotation matches the original equipment manufacturer’s specifications, ensuring proper operation and compatibility. The fan mount diameter and height are designed to fit the 300SEL’s cooling fan precisely, maintaining the correct airflow and cooling performance.
