Hydramat15" x 15" Cross, Center Pick-Up With 3/8" NPT Female FittingBrand: HOLLEYPart Number: HO16-100Description: The amazing HydraMat™ is Holley’s patent pending design that solves the problems associated with traditional fuel pick-ups in stock fuel tanks as well as racing fuel cells. During hardcornering, acceleration, stopping, inclines, and low fuel conditions fuel runs awayfrom the fuel pick up which introduces air into the systemresulting in poor engine performance and even stalling.HydraMat is the solution!
Surface tension and fluid wicking are the secrets of theHydraMat, giving it the amazing ability to draw from nearly any area that has contact with fuel and then store it in its internal reservoir. As an area of the HydraMat is uncovered, the tiny pores of the media seal off through surface tension, forcing fuel to be contained in the reservoir and drawn from other areas of the mat where fuel continues to be available. The sheer size and coverage area of the HydraMat allows it to pull fuel from virtually any area in the tankor cell eliminating the need for specialty reservoirs and pick up pumps saving cost and greatly reducing complexity.
