Description
The Mishimoto MMFAN-12BL is a 12-inch universal electric cooling fan engineered as a direct upgrade path for OEM units that fall short of airflow demands or that create clearance issues with aftermarket parts. Built with a slim 2.5-inch profile, this fan is designed to sit flush against a radiator core, freeing up valuable space in a tight engine bay. Rated to move up to 1150 CFM, it gives builders a genuinely high-output option in a compact package.
As part of Mishimoto’s Cooling lineup, the MMFAN-12BL brings performance-grade airflow to any build that needs more from its cooling system without sacrificing engine bay space. The 10-blade plastic fan is reversible, so it can be configured for pull or push airflow depending on your setup, though Mishimoto notes the fan is originally optimized in a puller configuration, and reversing polarity along with physically flipping the blades for pusher use may limit performance. Powered by a 12-volt electric motor rated up to 2000 RPM, the fan draws 12.7 amps on startup and 7.6 amps during continuous running, and it connects via a female snap-plug terminal (wiring harness not included). Because this is a universal-fit cooling fan rather than a vehicle-specific component, it can be mounted using the included tabs or, for a more finished installation, Mishimoto’s separately sold universal fan mount kit (P/N: MMFAN-MOUNT).
Vehicle Applications
As a universal electric cooling fan, the MMFAN-12BL is not built around one particular make or model. Instead, it is designed to adapt to virtually any radiator or cooling system that can accommodate a 12-inch diameter, 2.5-inch deep fan. This makes it a practical choice for engine bay builds, aftermarket radiator upgrades, or applications where a factory fan no longer clears surrounding components. For a secure, tailored fit, pair this fan with the Mishimoto universal fan mount kit (P/N: MMFAN-MOUNT), sold separately.
