Holley HydraMat® (15X8 Cross) - Offset Out - 3/8 in NPSF

Meet the incredible HydraMat® from Holley, a groundbreaking design that tackles the challenges faced by traditional fuel pick-ups in both stock fuel tanks and racing fuel cells. When you're making sharp turns, accelerating hard, or even just dealing with low fuel levels, it's common for fuel to run away from the pick-up point. This can introduce air into the system, leading to engine performance issues and, in some cases, stalling. But don't worry, HydraMat is here to save the day!

What makes the HydraMat so special? It's all about surface tension and fluid wicking! This clever technology allows the HydraMat to draw fuel from nearly any area that comes into contact with it, storing it in its internal reservoir. When part of the mat is uncovered, the tiny pores seal off through surface tension, ensuring fuel stays contained in the reservoir while continuing to draw from other areas where fuel is still available. With its impressive size and coverage, the HydraMat can pull fuel from virtually any spot in the tank or cell, eliminating the need for specialized reservoirs and pick-up pumps. This not only saves you money but also simplifies your setup.

HydraMats come in a variety of sizes and shapes, making it easy to find the perfect fit for your stock fuel tank or race fuel cell.

Features:

• Patent pending design that addresses the issues of traditional fuel pick-ups in stock tanks and racing fuel cells.
• Significantly reduces the chances of air entering the fuel system, which can lead to engine performance issues or stalling.
• Ideal for vehicles that experience fuel starvation during sharp turns, acceleration, stops, inclines, and low fuel levels.
• Thanks to surface tension and fluid wicking, the HydraMat keeps drawing fuel even if part of it is uncovered.
• When an area of the HydraMat is exposed, tiny pores close off, ensuring fuel is drawn from other areas where it's still available.
• The unique internal reservoir helps keep fuel accessible at the pick-up, even during intense fuel slosh conditions.
• Eliminates the need for specialty reservoirs, sumps, and pick-up pumps, simplifying your system and saving costs.
• Also functions as a 15-micron pre-filter, removing the need for a separate filter before the fuel pump.
• Can be easily folded and compressed for installation through various fuel cell openings.
• Available in multiple sizes and shapes to fit a wide range of stock fuel tanks and race fuel cells.
• Compatible with Alcohol, Ethanol, Methanol, and E-85 fuels.
• Works with 2-Cycle oil blends up to 20:1.
• Not suitable for most oils (see previous point for exceptions).
• Not for use with diesel fuels.

Notes:

• This HydraMat is designed to fit flat-bottom rectangular fuel cells with minimum dimensions of 15" long and 8" wide cross.
• For optimal performance, the return fuel should be discharged near the HydraMat pick-up, at least 1 inch above the mat.
• HydraMats with a female NPT thread do not require sealing paste or tape. Using these could lead to fuel pump failure.
