Fan drives get Polar treatment
Horton
Horton, Inc., a leading manufacturer of cooling solutions for engines, has introduced a new series of premium repair kits designed to upgrade its S and HT/S Advantage fan drives.
PolarExtreme repair kits feature an improved D-shaped seal design made from a new
hydrogenated buna nitrile rubber (HBNR) compound. This new construction will not harden or lose its seal in cold temperatures, or become dry and brittle from long-term engine exposure in the heat, the company says, adding HBNR provides a thirty-percent increase in temperature tolerance. The new material also means that Horton fan drives rebuilt with new PolarExtreme repair kits will last longer, more effectively resist abrasion, heat, breakage, leakage and spiral fatigue.
PolarExtreme seal kits are available in spring 2002. Super kits will be available in the
summer of 2002.
