Eloops in pull

I've heard that NB Eloops make some sort of grinding noise when used in pull on radiators. Anyone care to shed some light on this?

@CoolBeans I don't have e loops I have gentle typhoons

 

@cooperred it's because of the way the fan is designed, the fan blades are flush/stick out a bit further than the frame, all you have to do is put little rubber washers in each corner and it will fix it if you run into this problem.

Because of the design of the fan blades, they may touch the radiator in pull. You can solve this buy putting rubber washers in each corner.

This is only with rads that have the fins right up next to the frame. Most rads will be ok.

Alright thanks! Would any of you know if Alphacool's rads would require washers?
