OE Specification

After the closure of Covrad Heat Transfer Ltd UK, the core manufacturing equipment was transferred to G&M Radiator's manufacturing facility in Glasgow, and subsequently overhauled by the OE manufacturer.

This equipment enables G&M to produce a variety of Covrad fin patterns for jacket water radiators and charge air coolers, all in Covrad OE specification.

Improved Longevity

We have also developed a method of dipping the header plate and first 80mm of tubes and fins in high temperature solder for use in Charge Air radiators

Several Perkins engines with Covrad cooling systems fitted have very high charge air inlet temperatures. This means that even if the tube plate is dipped in high temp solder the extreme heat can travel down the first part of the core which can weaken the bond between the tube and fin, compromising the strength and longevity of the core.
