Why are BulletProof EGR Coolers Better than Original Equipment EGR Coolers?
BulletProof EGR coolers, unlike Original Equipment (OE) EGR coolers, are designed to address common failure points, enhance durability and longevity significantly based on several key factors:
1. Failure Points - Bullet Proof Diesel EGR Cooler designs resist 3 of the most common failure points:
a. Ruptures due to metal fatigue
b. Ruptures due to being starved for coolant
c. Restricted flow due to soot/debris
2. Construction and Materials:
a. Improved Manufacturing Processes: BulletProof coolers incorporate advanced manufacturing techniques to accommodate thermal events and lessen the chance of metal fatigue.
b. Superior Materials: BulletProof EGR coolers utilize higher-grade stainless-steel tubing instead of conventional rigid flat fins to eliminate any chance of restricted flow.
c. Upgraded bulkheads are used to strengthen the patented H-Core design.
3. Design Enhancements:
a. Patented H-Core Technology allows for expansion within the cooler itself. The braided tubes can expand laterally as well as medially to help eliminate metal fatigue at the ends of the cooler.
b. Optimized Flow Paths: Improved internal designs lead to better flow of EGR coolant, eliminating the risk of path restrictions.
c. Increased Cooling Capacity (Potentially): While not always the case, some BulletProof coolers might feature design modifications that enhance their cooling capacity. This can indirectly contribute to improved longevity by reducing the thermal stress on the unit.

4. Long-Term Cost Savings: While BulletProof EGR coolers may come with a higher upfront cost than OE parts, the potential for extended lifespan and avoidance of costly engine repairs can result in significant long-term savings. Replacing a failed OE EGR cooler, which often necessitates significant labor, can be a very expensive repair, potentially causing considerable downtime.
All in all, the EGR Coolers manufactured by Bullet Proof Diesel are of superior quality to those from most OE warehouses. Made with pride in Mesa, Arizona USA.
Important Note: The claim of a "BulletProof" or “BulletProofing” an engine is a trademarked term by Bullet Proof Diesel.
While these coolers are designed to be more durable and reliable, they are not immune to failure under extreme conditions or due to negligence (e.g., severe overheating, lack of maintenance). It's vital to ensure proper vehicle maintenance and address any underlying issues that might contribute to EGR cooler failure, regardless of the brand. Always consult your vehicle's maintenance schedule and seek professional advice if you suspect a problem.
