Includes Thermostat and Housing
Facet is an Italian company with over 70 years of experience focused in engine management and temperature control. Facet's Thermostats are manufactured in Europe to meet or exceed OE standards of fit, form and function and are certified to ISO9001 and TS16949 standards.

Features & Benefits:
  • A Friction Welding* technique is utilized during the manufacturing process instead of glue or external welding to ensure a permanent bond between the two halves of the thermostat
  • Tested for resistance to vibration, thermal shocks, and overall endurance
  • Excellent watertightness
  • Continuous improvements are made in the materials used in response to most frequent problems encountered by the OE part

*Friction Welding produces heat through mechanical friction between a linear moving work piece and a stationary component. The motion stops after sufficient material is melted. The plastic then solidifies and forms a permanent bond. This process is superior to OE designs that utilize glue or standard external welding.

What Temperature Thermostat Do I Need?

Thermostats have a “rated” temperature (such as 180F or 195F). This is the temperature the thermostat will start to open, releasing heated coolant from the engine into the radiator. The thermostat will fully open once the coolant gets another ten or fifteen degrees warmer.

OE TEMPERATURE

These thermostats match the OEM-specified temperature rating for the vehicle. Manufacturers recommend an OE temperature thermostat for most engines, especially for:

  • Modern engines with computers that use the coolant temperature to help control the fuel, emissions and other important systems

ALTERNATE TEMPERATURE

These thermostats have a temperature rating below (cooler than) the OEM-specified temperature rating for the vehicle. This option may make sense for use in:

  • Modified Engines
  • Performance Applications
  • Older / Classic Vehicles
Cooling System Maintenance | Tips & Tools

Without regular maintenance, cooling system components will degrade and fail prematurely, which can lead to costly engine damage. Protect your engine with simple preventative maintenance:

  • Completely drain and flush the system using Cooling System Flush prior to installation. Flushing the system is critical to prevent system contamination and failure.
  • Consider replacing the Radiator Hoses (and Hose Clamps) and Radiator Cap as part of routine preventative maintenance. System contamination can cause these parts to degrade and fail over time, which can lead to severe engine damage from overheating.
  • Refill radiator with fresh Coolant / Antifreeze according to the volume and formula specified in your Owner's Manual. Inspect levels and condition every year.
