Honeycomb or Cellular Cores

If your car requires a honeycomb or cellular core radiator we may be able to help. The Brassworks specializes in the restoration of honeycomb cores. A honeycomb cores construction is both science and art and the resulting radiators are as attractive as the cars they grace. These beautiful cores are commonly found on classics like the Pierce Arrow, Franklin, Seagrave fire engines, Livingston V, Buick, Underslung, Lozier and later models like Dodge, Chrysler, Chevy, Desoto and many more.

Round Tube Cores

The Brassworks manufactures round tube cores for early Fords, Dodge Brothers, Cadillacs and a host of other cars, fire engines and vintage farm tractors. McCord style radiators with folded flange fin or wire-in-fin for face support are availble in the original 6 fin per inch or an increased fin density for improved cooling. This core is "period correct" and less expensive alternative to a honeycomb core design.
We also reproduce round tube cores with angled header found on vehicles like the Mitchell or Chrysler Town and Country Radiator.

Tube & Disc Cores

The Brassworks will also manufacture horizontal tube and coin and spiral disc style cores like those found in turn of the century Cadillacs and Oldsmobiles. An original 1906 Ford Model N and 1903 Oldsmobile and reproductions are pictured.

Cartridge Cores

We can construct cartridge style or flared tube cellular cores found in oil coolers and radiators. Flares options of hexagon, circle, square and diamond are available upon request. Common to Rolls Royce radiators.
