Product Description
Improve steering reliability and fluid temperature control with the PSC CK100-6 Heat Sink Fluid Cooler Kit with 6AN Fittings. Designed for high-performance power steering systems used in diesel trucks, off-road rigs, rock crawlers, and racing vehicles, this PSC heat sink cooler dramatically reduces fluid temperatures to prevent steering fade and pump failure during heavy use. Unlike traditional fin-and-tube coolers that rely heavily on airflow, the PSC heat sink design utilizes both internal and external cooling fins to dissipate heat efficiently even in low-airflow environments. This makes it ideal for installations under the chassis, along frame rails, or in other compact locations where conventional coolers may struggle. Constructed from rugged extruded aluminum with precision welded ends, the PSC CK100-6 is engineered to withstand extreme off-road conditions and high-load steering systems. The kit includes -6AN fittings, hose, and mounting hardware, making it a complete solution for improving the longevity and performance of your power steering system.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the PSC CK100-6 cooler do?
This cooler reduces power steering fluid temperature to prevent pump overheating, steering fade, and fluid breakdown during heavy off-road or towing conditions.
Where should a power steering cooler be mounted?
PSC recommends installing the cooler below the level of the power steering pump and outside the engine compartment for optimal cooling efficiency.
Does this cooler require airflow to work?
No. The heat sink design uses internal and external fins to dissipate heat efficiently even in low airflow environments.
What is included in the PSC CK100-6 kit?
The kit includes the aluminum heat sink cooler, -6AN fittings, hose, clamps, and installation hardware required for installation.
What fluid does PSC recommend for their steering systems?
PSC recommends SWEPCO 715 Power Steering Fluid for optimal performance and system protection.
