King Radiator Oshawa

Older model trucks had radiators made of brass and copper alloys. This made it easier to repair them because all that you had to do was to solder the holes or cracks causing leakages. However, over the years, things have changed and newer models of trucks now have radiators made of aluminum cores, which have bottom tanks and plastic tops. These newer radiators are more susceptible to damage since even improperly removing a pressure cap, over tightening a clip or forcing off a hose can damage them. It is impossible for a home mechanic to accurately repair damage to these modern radiators and that is where we at King Radiator come in. We have the knowledge and experience to handle your truck’s radiator and the one thing that we appreciate about these newer radiators is that they are lighter than the conventional ones and have simple fittings that we can easily remove.

Best truck radiator services Oshawa

Your truck’s radiator will age over time and when that happens, several issues may arise signaling to you that it is time to replace your radiator. Your radiator can sustain irreparable damage and this may result to the need for a radiator replacement in order to prevent breakdowns in the future. You first need to keep in mind that radiators are made of metal and almost all metals are susceptible to aging and weakening. The constant cooling down and heating up of the radiator puts the same strain on the metal as bending a piece of wire back and forth in the same area on the wire because of course, it will eventually break. When your radiator is under pressure, you can lose a substantial amount of coolant rapidly. Our technicians will recommend a replacement if they notice that yours is ready for one. Again, rust will form on unprotected iron and we call this oxidation. With time, more of the metal on your radiator oxidizes until small openings begin to appear. The high pressure inside the hot cooling system of your truck will spray coolant through these small openings as you drive. Although stop leak can slow the leaks for some time, that is only a temporary solution and we recommend that you come in for a replacement.
