Bullet Proof Diesel released a line of EGR coolers for the Ford 6.7L Power Stoke diesel engine (all model years). These BulletProof EGR coolers feature exclusive, patented H-Core technology, which was developed to resist the common causes of EGR cooler failure. Immediately available, the BulletProof EGR Cooler is an upgraded, warrantied EGR cooler for the Ford 6.7L Power Stroke.
Bullet Proof Diesel revolutionized the diesel segment with the advent of the BulletProof EGR cooler, a product line that reduced the failure rate of the component within specific diesel engines. Taking the technology a step further, Bullet Proof Diesel has engineered a patented, self-accommodating ‘H-Core’ design that allows for the natural expansion and contraction of cooling tubes inside the EGR cooler. This limits structural failure, which can occur at the end of the tubes, rupturing the EGR cooler, rendering it useless and leading to possible engine component damage. The H-Core construction also increases the surface area of the coolant tubes within the EGR coolers, making them more effective heat exchangers than other tubed designs.
A more forgiving EGR cooler design is integral to the durability of the component. During the life of an engine, a ‘thermal event’ - that is, an occurrence in which sufficient coolant flow is prevented from reaching the EGR cooler - will cause a temperature spike within the unit that often leads to component failure. This leads to truck downtime, additional repair costs, and legal issues, as keeping the EGR cooler operational is a necessary contingent for public road-use legality in all 50 states.
The release of H-Core-equipped EGR coolers marks the continuation of Bullet Proof Diesel’s ‘commercial’ product technology. Bullet Proof Diesel aims to provide a permanent EGR cooler solution, in contrast to the stock units, which repeatedly need to be replaced in many cases. Bullet Proof Diesel is currently seeking input from fleet managers and professionals to help determine which applications to produce next and encourages those with EGR cooler needs to contact them so new prototypes can be developed.
