17in Aluminum Race Fan

The DERALE 17-inch Aluminum Race Fan is a mechanical cooling fan engineered for high-output engine bays where effective heat dissipation is non-negotiable. Featuring a rigid race design with a 6-blade aluminum construction and steel hub, this universal-fit cooling fan delivers consistent airflow across demanding operating conditions. The 17-inch diameter and 5/8-inch pilot with universal bolt pattern make it compatible with a wide range of engine configurations, from street performance builds to track-duty applications where cooling capacity directly impacts reliability and sustained performance.

The aluminum blade construction provides a critical advantage in weight reduction without sacrificing structural rigidity, allowing the fan to operate efficiently across varying RPM ranges. The 6-blade configuration balances airflow volume with mechanical robustness, a proven geometry in racing and modified vehicle applications. The steel hub assembly ensures durability under continuous duty cycles, while the natural aluminum finish on blades pairs with the black-painted hub for functional aesthetics. At 3.87 lbs, the fan's lightweight profile minimizes parasitic drag on the engine, critical when every fraction of horsepower counts in competitive or high-performance applications.

This cooling fan is designed for operators of high-performance and race vehicles who demand controlled engine temperatures under sustained load. Whether supporting weekend track duty, off-road recovery operations, or street performance builds, the rigid race design provides the thermal management needed when stock cooling systems fall short. The universal bolt pattern simplifies installation across diverse engine platforms, eliminating platform-specific engineering concerns. Serious builders and performance enthusiasts select DERALE race fans when cooling performance and weight efficiency are mission-critical specifications.

DERALE has established itself in the cooling systems category through race-proven designs that prioritize thermal output and durability under extreme duty. The 17-inch diameter positions this fan in the mid-range segment for larger-displacement engines and custom cooling setups, where standard factory fans lack the capability needed for sustained high-performance operation or elevated ambient conditions.
