The SPAL EF3569 (VA31-A101-46S) is a premium, ultra-compact 12V 5.2-inch electric pusher fan engineered for specialized automotive, motorsport, and motorcycle cooling applications. This high-efficiency straight paddle-blade fan features an open shroud design that delivers a strong 307 CFM of airflow to push cool air directly into your radiator or cooling core. Important Mounting Note: This specialized compact fan body does not feature built-in feet slots and cannot be used with standard SPAL clip-on mounting feet. It is designed specifically for flush custom mounting, custom brackets, or universal pin configurations. Common Applications & What People Use It For Due to its tiny footprint, front-mount pusher layout, and rugged motor build, the SPAL EF3569 is widely trusted across New Zealand for targeted cooling problem-solving: - Front-Mount Auxiliary Cooling: Installed on the grille side of small radiators or heat exchangers to provide extra airflow when a rear puller fan cannot keep up or lacks physical clearance.
- Motorbike & Quad Bike Radiators: Popular among adventure bike builders and ATV riders who need an auxiliary front-mount pusher fan to stop engine temps spiking during low-speed trail work.
- Small Fluid & Transmission Coolers: Perfectly sized to mount directly onto aftermarket power steering coolers, differential coolers, or remote transmission fluid (ATF) coolers on performance track cars and tow rigs.
- Custom Go-Karts & Buggies: Extensively used in shifter karts, grass karts, and custom off-road buggies where engine bay real estate is extremely limited.
- Industrial Enclosures & Cab Ventilation: Chosen by marine and agricultural fabricators for heavy-duty electrical cabinet cooling or small driver cab air circulation due to its commercial-grade motor durability.
