The hard facts

The more horsepower an engine develops the more heat it creates. Once an engine reaches around 85°C (185°F) you start losing power and at about 118°C (244, 4°F) you could lose 6-7 HP and ultimately risks the threat of serious damage. Cooling problems are a major cause of failures in all types of racing: the radiator is important to the performance and longevity of your racing engine.

How does it work?

The radiator removes the engines unused heat. This is accomplished by the fluid which carries the heat out of the engine into the radiator. Once in the radiator the fluid moves through the tube/fin where the engine’s heat is dissipated.

Why an Aluminium Racing Radiator

The standard radiators on stock machines are not designed for the high amount of work which the engine is subjected to under race or trackday conditions. H2O performance aluminium radiators are designed to overcome this shortcoming.  Keeping the engine cool and preserving it from breakage caused by overheating. To keep costs down, OEM radiators are designed keeping the number of tubes (More expensive) and increasing the number of cooling fins (Much cheaper). H2O does the exact opposite designing its cooling radiators with a high number of pipes and fewer fins, also limiting dirt and debris that normally fit inside, obviously decreasing its efficiency. The sturdiness of the product is born in the welding of the tubes to the trays, avoiding the gluing the H2O aluminium radiator will certainly be more long-lived and robust. The use of aluminium in the construction and technology make it much lighter than an original radiator.
