- Patent pending design that solves the problems associated with traditional fuel pick-ups in stock fuel tanks as well as racing fuel cells
- Greatly reduces the potential for air to enter into the fuel system which can result in poor engine performance and/or engine stalling
- Perfect for vehicles experiencing fuel starvation during hard cornering, acceleration, stopping, inclines, and low fuel conditions
- Surface tension and fluid wicking allow the HydraMat to continue to draw fuel from the tank or cell even when part of the mat uncovered
- As an area of the HydraMat is uncovered, tiny pores in the media seal off through surface tension, forcing fuel to be drawn from other areas of the mat where fuel continues to be available
- Unique internal reservoir assists in keeping fuel available at the pickup even under extreme fuel slosh conditions
- Eliminates the need for specialty reservoirs, sumps and pick up pumps saving cost and greatly reducing complexity
- Also acts as a 15 micron pre-filter eliminating the need for a separate filter before the fuel pump
- Can be folded and compressed for easy installation through a variety of fuel cell openings
- HydraMats are also available in other sizes and shapes to fit a variety of stock fuel tanks and/or race fuel cells
- Works with Alcohol, Ethanol, Methanol, and E-85 fuels
- Works with 2-cycle oil blends as high as 20:1
- Not for use with most oils (see previous point for exception)
- Not for use with diesel fuels
Fitting location designed for unviversal use
Designed to fit flat bottom rectangular style fuel cells with minimum dimensions of 15″ long and 3″ wide
For best performance, the return fuel should be discharged near the pick-up of the HydraMat at a minimum distance of 1 inch above the mat.
Other part numbers available soon with Methanol compatibility
HydraMats with a female NPT thread do not require the use of a sealing paste or tape. Use of a sealing paste or tape could result in fuel pump failure.
