really, how safe are those "mounting clips?

[CRXer]

I been running clips like that on my slim fan for about a year now & had no problems.I'd say there fairly safe.

i was always meaning to ask... where the hell do they clip onto the radiator??

its not in the fins is it??

They go right thru the fins to a clip on the other side of the fins,like it sandwiches the fins.

[destrukshn]

okay done, i'm buying it
lol
if it's good enough for your CRXer, i'm sure it would be good enougb for me
lol.

[destrukshn]

but wait, lol, does it damage your rad?
like the fins?
becuase i presume the fins aren't that strong
lol.

[CRXer]

The pins just push thru the holes in the fins to the other side where u put the clip on.

No damage to fins,just bends them slightly to allow for size of pin.U wont miss a couple of fins anyway if u do damage them,theres thousands more to make up for it.

lol
jsut makin sure doesn't rip through it.

they work OK

as long as you fit it flush on the core they will hold in well.

dont cut the zip tie to short either, leave 1cm. and dont do them up megga tight, just firmly.

hey johnny. you got PM.

[Limbo]

yeah i used these for my oil cooler, later found out they are B*tch to get out especially cos i cut mine so they were nice and clean.
Lets just say you would have to pull the clips thru the radiator before they give or cut them off

[destrukshn]

id rather cut it
lol.

[Limbo]

just be careful the fins don't cut you, cos i was careless

what size should i be looking at for a koyo full aluminium radiator (half size)had a look at hte 12/14" ones and the CFM is quite a big difference.. 1300v1900CFM
