1340167 Viscous Fan Clutch Assembly for OPEL Omega
For replacement-parts procurement, 1340167 is the principal comparison number for this OPEL Omega fan clutch. SKU OP01012-001 helps avoid confusion with visually similar hubs.
The fan clutch allows controlled slip when extra airflow is not needed, then transmits more torque as temperature rises. This reduces the drawbacks of a permanently rigid fan drive.

Temperature-Responsive Fan Engagement
Thermal fan clutches are designed to engage progressively as cooling demand increases. Their response works together with the radiator, shroud, coolant circuit and belt-driven accessory system.
Cooling complaints should not be assigned to the clutch alone. Restricted radiator fins, a damaged shroud, thermostat faults, belt problems and low coolant can produce similar symptoms.
Buyer Matching Guide
Use 1340167 together with OPEL Omega model, engine and production data. Measure the overall height and check fan-side and drive-side mounting details before approval.
- Confirm the OE number and usable cross-references.
- Match vehicle model, engine, chassis and production period.
- Check drive-side thread or flange and rotation direction.
- Measure hub height, pilot diameter and fan bolt circle.
- Verify blade alignment and clearance inside the shroud.
Installation and Cooling-System Checks
Installation should be completed by a qualified technician. Follow the specified thread direction and torque procedure, inspect the fan and water-pump bearing, replace damaged hardware, and confirm that the blade rotates freely without contacting the radiator or shroud. Test the vehicle under the appropriate warm operating conditions after assembly.
Packing and QC Notes

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the safest way to confirm OPEL Omega compatibility?
Combine OE 1340167, engine or VIN catalogue data and direct comparison with the removed fan clutch.
Can fan imbalance damage the new clutch?
Yes. A cracked or distorted blade can create vibration and bearing load, so the fan assembly must be inspected.
Is the clutch normally rigid when cold?
Behavior varies by design and recent operation. Use the manufacturer’s diagnostic procedure rather than a single hand-spin judgment.
May I approve a sample before volume supply?
Sample review can be arranged subject to availability. Reference OP01012-001 and define the inspection checklist.
Does the supplier accept custom labels?
Barcode, carton and customer-label options can be evaluated after quantity and artwork details are supplied.
