fan blade

does anyone know where I may obtain a fan blade for a serpentine belt system that doesn't use a fan clutch and not be a flex fan?  The serpentine fans have the blades pitched different from the standard rotation water pumps.  Thanks

Re: fan blade

SUMMIT RACING has a big listing of fans, including reverse rotation fans.  I know they have flex fans, but did not pay any attention to see if they have non-flex ones.


Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

Re: fan blade

I just did a quick search.  The link is below.  Looks like Derale has a good assortment of reverse rotation in 17, 18, and 19" and it looks like they also have a narrow option.  Was travelling last week and didn't have a chance to try to find pulleys for your app. but it sounds like you have found some room?

Re: fan blade

Thanks for the info.  I looked at the summit website but it didn't give any info on the overall area taken up by the fan front to back to see if I do indeed have enough room.  I think they would work, but before I order one, I would like to know if it will hit anything.  I tried to find a phone number for them, but there wasn't anything on their website; at least I couldn't find any.  Thanks again

Re: fan blade

Go to Derale.com.  Two things to look at.  First, click on the support center tab in the upper left and the click on sales support over towards the right.  Numbers are listed as well as an email contact for support.

Next, click on the products tab and use the scroll bar below to get to page 61.  The depth for each fan is listed.  If you see a part number there that is not on Summit, you can still order it through Summit.  They range from 2-1/4 to 2-7/16 deep.  The site is in silverlite, apparently, and you can't copy/paste info - at least from Chrome.  If your system does not support silverlite, it may not display properly.

The sales support number listed is:  323-266-3850

What diameter do you need?
