Flex-A-Lite 238 Details
The revolutionary, patent-pending Flex-Wave™ LoBoy electric fan from Flex-A-Lite® has greater airflow, is more efficient and is quieter than traditional S-blade and straight-blade designs. The Flex-Wave fan moves up to 20 percent more airflow than Flex-A-Lite Trimline fans, and up to 33 percent more airflow than the comparable electric fans from the competitors!
This 16-inch Flex-Wave LoBoy fan moves 3,000 cfm of airflow and an extremely thin, 3 3/16-inch depth.
Converting from a belt-driven fan to a Flex-A-Lite electric fan frees up wasted horsepower and increases gas mileage. When used as an auxiliary fan, these units will provide additional cooling.
More than having just a different look, the Flex-Wave electric-fan blade has several aerodynamic advantages for air movement:
- The leading edge of the fan blade is no longer a single, solid line. The sine-wave design creates leading edges that cut through the air first. This starts movement in the air around the blade with greater efficiency.
- The wave surface of the blades creates channels for the air to move along, producing more airflow and reducing energy losses.
- The wave surface forms a winglet at the tip of the blade, further increasing efficiency by reducing air vortices.
- The trailing edge of the fan blade also has variations, which reduces wind noise.

I need a very shallow fan in my 1940 Ford street rod. The only fan I could find that was shallow enough only pulled 1600 cfm and would not keep the coolant temperature in the 180-190 range I desire. This fan with 3000 cfm seems to do the job (but I need to verify this summer in the heat). I did have to machine 3/8" off of the housing to fit into the restricted area on my car.

The cooling fan is unbelievable. The quality is fantastic with one of the highest rat CFM capabilities. Solved my cooling issues in a tight engine compartment.
