CHARGE AIR COOLERS - CONSTRUCTION

The methods developed by AMI have now been adopted by almost all of the worlds manufacturer's including the original equipment suppliers.

The fins are produced separately in their thousands. Carefully sized tube holes are formed, each with a collar around it's edge. Once the cooler has been loosely assembled, the tubes are carefully inserted through the tube holes. An accurately toleranced bullet is forced down the tubes entire length and its diameter is increased. This is what grips the fin to the tube.
