Here’s some pics of a Hitachi EX5600 shovel radiator we picked up for repairing & rebuilding. This radiator is comprised of a Low-Temp radiator half & a High-Temp radiator half so basically two radiators in one. It is a MESABI with individual radiator tubes rather than a conventional core unit. The radiator is leaking on [...]

Here’s some rebuilding process pics of a Komatsu 930E-5 MESABI Radiator. The 3-Row High-Temp Radiator is about complete. The 2-Row Low-Temp Radiator is ready for the tubes to be installed. The MESABI tubes in this one are all aluminum which are relatively delicate in comparison to their copper counterparts. They are lighter, & they are [...]

Here’s some pics of a cooling package we repaired & rebuilt for an Epiroc Pit Viper 271 Drill Rig. Inside the steel framework are three aluminum oil coolers, an aluminum radiator & two hydraulic driven fans. All three coolers as well as the radiator were cleaned, repaired & pressure tested. The two hydraulic fan motors [...]

Here’s some pics of a large aluminum charge air cooler we recored for a Caterpillar 6060 Hydraulic Shovel. The intercooler is so large that it is made up of four individual bar-and-plate cores which are all tig welded together to make one complete unit. We recore a fair amount of aluminum coolers for both liquid [...]

Here’s some pics of a Komatsu 830E AC haul truck radiator we picked up for rebuilding. This radiator is a Mesabi with well over a thousand individual radiator tubes. Each tube will be removed for cleaning, inspection & reconditioning if they pass all the criteria for reuse. We'll post more info & pictures on this [...]

Here’s some pics of a bunch of Mesabi radiator tubes we're in the process of reconditioning. Some of the Mesabi radiators we get in for rebuilding have aluminum tubes while some of them have copper tubes. We prefer, and highly recommend, the copper tubes as they are much more robust than their aluminum counterparts. Aluminum [...]

Here’s some pics of a Komatsu 930E-5 haul truck radiator we picked up for repair & remanufacturing. The radiator is a Mesabi unit with all aluminum tubes. We are removing all the tubes for cleaning & reconditioning as well as replacing all the upper & lower rubber grommet seals. There are some damaged tubes that [...]

Here’s some pics of a Caterpillar D10T2 dozer radiator we had in for a complete rebuild overhaul. The radiator is a Modine CGT, copper grommeted tube, unit which had seen better days. There were fifty tubes that were worn very thin from debris being thrown at them by the fan. All the other individual copper [...]

Here’s some pics of a delivery we made to a couple of our mining customers. The yellow radiator is for a Caterpillar 793C haul truck. The radiator we brought in was a folded core radiator & our customer requested us to change it to a Mesabi radiator. So this radiator is a new unit with [...]

Here’s some pics of an aluminum radiator we had in for a Grove RT600E crane that was leaking in the tubes of the core from internal plugging, or fouling. The build-up inside the tubes allowed corrosion to take place which ate the tubes up internally causing leaks in the tubes of the core. We cut [...]
