The radiator is one of the main parts of the car engine, which is responsible for cooling the engine. The radiator has thin tubes that take the heat and heat of the engine by circulating the water around the engine and return to the radiator, and the cooling liquid cools down when it hits the cool air. In general, the radiator is installed in the front part of the car engine so that it has more contact with the open air and can perform the cooling process better. But one of the important points that is very important in the health of the car radiator is the temperature The radiator is in a certain range, and if it happens contrary to this issue, it is possible that your car's radiator will be punctured and it will cost you a lot to repair and replace it.
What are the causes that cause the car's radiator to pierce?
Explosion in the radiator
Explosion in the radiator may occur for various reasons, such as the entry of very high pressure of water vapor, blockage of the water channel or even not using standard antifreeze. and be done appropriately. When an explosion occurs in the car radiator for such reasons, its components and parts are affected and may be broken or punctured. If, after the explosion in the radiator, you see coolant leaking or reducing the water in the radiator too much, you should take care of it immediately. br>
The radiator of the car must be in contact with the open air, that's why it is placed in the front part of the engine, but if there is a blow to the front of the car or the hood, the first part that gets damaged is the radiator. Also, if you drive the car on rough and difficult roads or even if you drive at a speed of over 100 km/h, the possibility of sharp objects or stones and sand hitting the radiator is higher and causes the radiator to be punctured.
Rust, corrosion or decay in the radiator
Car radiators rust when exposed to water or air, and every time it rusts, a layer of the radiator's inner wall is destroyed. When this ringing continues, in the long run, we will see the weakening of the radiator body and eventually it will be punctured. Also, if you use inappropriate radiator water that has high hardness and salts, these salts will deposit in the radiator in the long term and cause corrosion and decay in the radiator, which will eventually lead to a hole in the radiator.
Radiator water channel blockage
Radiator water channel blockage causes water to not circulate well in the car's cooling system, and excessive accumulation of water in the radiator causes significant rise. The temperature increases and this results in the piercing of the radiator body. It freezes inside the radiator and this causes a hole in the car radiator. The standard period for replacing antifreeze in today's cars is about one year, depending on the type of radiator water, this period is slightly shorter or longer. If you don't change the coolant on time during the cold winter, you will face the challenge of freezing the radiator water and creating a hole in the radiator body.
Improper ventilation
If you pay attention to the door of the car radiator, it is written on it that proper ventilation for the car radiator is necessary for its better performance. One of the problems that may occur as a result of incorrect ventilation for the radiator is excessive pressure on the radiator and its perforation. It is very important in balancing the temperature of the car radiator. If this part is damaged, the car's radiator is not cooled well and only works at a high temperature, which causes the radiator to be punctured.
