Universal High Performance 12V Slim Electric Cooling Radiator Fan with Fan Mounting Kit (12 Inch, Black)

I use this as a replacement for my Polaris sportsman 500. This fan outperforms the stock fan and it's a quarter of the price. Easy installation. The fan is strong and quiet. I've had this fan on for about 3 months now and it's still working great.

Husband loves it. Put in extra fan for the corvette. Says it works great.

I’ve only recently installed the 7” fan as a transmission cooler fan and the 16” fan as an auxiliary radiator fan to use as needed and I’m impressed so far. Seems to be well made. Very quiet operation. Plenty slim. Etc. Both of them running are actually quieter than the twin 10” ones I have that regularly cool my engine and will likely be switching over to this brand in the future. Haven’t had the chance to truly get a temperature difference with either of them as they are just auxiliary fans for me to use as needed, but I’m sure it will help when I’m loaded down towing or off-roading and being generous on the skinny pedal on a hot day. They push a good amount of air.Product didn’t come with any instructions in the slightest so for those wanting a “pusher” fan, you will need to:1) Take nut off of center of fan and flip fan 180° and I recommend using a little blue loctite to keep the nut on. This is the same across the board regardless of size.2) reverse the wiring. In other words, use the black wire as the power and the blue wire as the ground. This will allow the fan to rotate in the correct direction. The motor is reverse-able so it will be okay.I also didn’t use the springs provided for the zip tie like fasteners. Fan does not vibrate that much and creates no extra noise out of normal fan operation. Only getting a 4/5 because it comes with zero instructions. If you aren’t comfortable with doing this install with no instruction get it professionally installed.

Wow, great fan for low price! I highly recommend it for applications requiring a 12" rad fan. I'm so pleased with my miserly money saving that I'm going to include the details. I used this Upgr8 12" universal fan to replace the one on my 2013 Polaris Ranger 800 Mid-Size Side-by-Side ATV. One of the 7 blades on my original fan had broken off, so it was running with vibration and noise. The original fan unit (Polaris OEM Part Number 2411732) comes as a complete unit with the fan attached to the plastic shroud that bolts to the radiator. The cheapest replacement for this unit new was $289.99 here on amazon.com (also available from other sources, about the same price after shipping). The OEM all-in-one unit of fan and shroud is a lot more more money, but it is ready to bolt back on as is, after removing the old one. However, I was hoping to save some major bucks, and this Upgr8 12" fan (U8801-1204) was $26.95, so I decided I would try to do my own custom hack and fit the new fan on the old shroud. It turned out great! I got the idea to try it after reading a forum where a guy posted his result, using an Imperial 226112 12" 8-blade model. The original OEM has 7 blades with 700 CFM; Imperial has 8 blades with 800 CFM, and this Upgr8 has 10 blades with 1750 CFM! (CFM = cubic feet per minute rate of air flow). That's right, this baby moves 2.5 times as much air than the original! It took me about 45 minutes to remove the original fan and shroud unit. It was only 6 bolts, but 4 of them were a little hard to get at; a few minor things had to be moved in order to lift the unit up and out -- loosened the clamp and pushed off the upper rad hose (after siphoning less than a quart out of the radiator), pulled off overflow hose, moved some wrapped wires and cables. I should have been able to do it in 30 minutes, but I was figuring things out as a I went. (A new OEM unit would could be reinstalled in 30 minutes.) Now came the work -- refitting the shroud to work with the universal fan: I removed the original fan motor from the shroud, and used a reciprocating saw with fairly fine-toothed blade to cut off the raised section in which the blades rotate (the new fan has its own enclosed wall around the blades). Cutting it was much easier after I had a second person to help hold the shroud. After getting the round, raised section cut off, I used a grinder to smooth the edges down. In hindsight, the grinder worked so well I wouldn't have bothered trying to be so careful with the saw, bearing in mind to keep the diameter to its maximum (not cut into the flat part of the shroud). The material in the shroud was similar to cutting and working with black ABS plumbing pipes. The Upgr8 fan has 4 holes in the round wall/shroud for mounting, plus it comes with 4 more anchors that can be added. I used all 8 -- placed the new fan on the refitted shroud, marked 2 holes and drilled them, fastened the fan with those 2 bolts and then drilled the other 6 to be sure to get the holes easily lined up. The fan doesn't come with any bolts; I used 1/4" x 3/4" bolts with nuts and washers. (It comes with the 4 x zip tie kit designed for attaching the fan directly to the radiator with no shroud; maybe this would have worked fine; I figured the shroud would spread the air being pulled through the entire rad, not just the 12" diameter of the fan itself; also, the shroud helps protect the rad from stray branches and debris that can get wedged while on the woods trails.) I cut the 2 wires on the original connector and spliced it to the wires on the new fan; that way it was simple to reconnect the wires after reinstallation (the original wire pair was blue and black -- the same as this new fan, so it was straightforward). After the refitting was done, it was just like having an OEM unit to drop back into place and reinstall. This new fan is a little thinner than the original, so it had a little more clearance as it was fit back into place. The final test was rewarding -- I started the engine and after 10 minutes or so the fan kicked in, and it ran even quieter than the original. As I held my hand behind the fan and radiator, the increased air flow being pulled through the radiator was immediately noticeable. If I had taken the ATV to the dealer, the dealer price on the OEM fan unit was about $300 plus it would probably would have been 1.5-2 hours labour. With tax, I think I saved myself close to $400 -- that's the carrot. The stick is that I was about 5 hours from start to finish. If I were to do it a second time, I could do it in no more than half that time. I spent quite a lot of time figuring out methodology, chasing down the next tool I needed, getting the bolts and washers, etc. Since the information and picture I found posted by Txpipeliner (Gerry) Regular Member 06-02-2014 on prcforum gave me the confidence to tackle the task, I will also post some pictures -- maybe some others will be encouraged.

I like the blue as it matches the fans on radiator and interior color. Easy to install to the transmission cooler. I'm not keen on the mounting of that radiator to the fender well but it took advantage of existing holes and fender well curvature. The fan blows hard and is easily reversable. I can feel heat coming through the rad. and thru the fan. Not very quiet but I can't forget it's on with the engine off. Currently I turn on all fans manually. It could be hooked up to activate upon oil temperature similar to today's vehicles. The truck I have installed it on is a 1957 Willys 283 cu in w/ 400 turbo at. I can't yet speak to longitivity but the main radiator fans are of like made and have been working 4 years now. I'm pleased with my purchase and would buy again.

Makes good air and it has good speed and it works good for my engine compartment on my side x side blowing warm air into my cab

Empezó a trabajar bien pero al 2do mes ya se empezó a escuchar los rodamientos

Aun no lo instaló pero el producto de muy buena calidad y funciona a la perfección en pruebas de banco en realidad por el precio altamente recomendado

Okay
