Looking For Aftercooler Fan
Hey Guys,
I'm trying to build an air dryer for my 185 compressor.
I have a good set up on my MMLJ pot but don't want to pay 3k for a fan and a moisture trap. Does anyone know who sales 12v aftercooler fans that would handle 200-300 cfm?

Thanks

Found
Thanks Guys,
I found one last night.
Aftercooler radiator and fan with moisture trap for 1200.00
I had been getting some crazy quotes for 3 times that.
If you are looking for one I got it from cob-blaster in Oregon.

FYI after buying mine, I did some more research, They are made by van-air.
I have the same unit on my soda blaster but never knew who actually manufactured them. So if anyone ever is in the market for an after-cooler set up at a good price here goes...

Its a couple hundred dollars cheaper if you skip the middle man.

Spal fans are the best My turbo mustang kept over heating with the added power and I had a custom radiator with 2 spal fans put in pulls so much air I have to shut one down it gets too cold in the winter.

van air is the company who makes them and i bought my setup from blastandpaint.com but ideally, a delisquent drier is what you need.
