Thermaltake CL-F160-PL14BL-A

Overview

The Thermaltake CL-F160-PL14BL-A is a two-pack of 140 mm high static pressure cooling fans designed to optimize airflow through dense radiators, heatsinks, and restrictive case layouts. Each fan operates on a 12 V, 4-pin PWM connection, allowing precise speed control from a quiet 500 RPM idle up to a powerful 2000 RPM. At full speed, a single fan delivers up to 119.6 CFM airflow while maintaining noise levels around 31.6 dB-A, balancing strong cooling performance with manageable sound output.

Key features

• Two 140 mm fans included for symmetrical cooling setups and balanced airflow
• Wide PWM speed range from 500 to 2000 RPM enables dynamic noise and cooling management
• Nine-blade design with tight tip clearance minimizes air leakage and enhances static pressure for effective radiator and heatsink cooling
• Second-generation hydraulic bearing reduces friction and vibration, extending fan lifespan to approximately 40,000 hours
• Standard 4-pin PWM connectors ensure compatibility with most modern motherboards and fan controllers without additional wiring
• Quiet operation at low speeds supports noise-sensitive environments while ramping up efficiently under load

Key specs

• Fan size: 140 × 140 × 25 mm
• Speed range: 500 to 2000 RPM (PWM controlled)
• Maximum airflow: 119.6 CFM
• Noise level: up to 31.6 dB-A
• Bearing type: second-generation hydraulic bearing
• Estimated lifespan: approximately 40,000 hours
• Connector: 4-pin PWM
• Voltage: 12 V

Connectivity and compatibility

The fans connect via standard 4-pin PWM headers, making them compatible with a wide range of motherboards and fan controllers. This allows for seamless integration into existing PC cooling setups, whether you are managing a liquid cooling loop or air cooling with thick tower heatsinks. The PWM control ensures the fans adjust speed automatically based on system temperatures, providing efficient cooling without manual intervention.

Ideal uses and environments

This two-pack is well suited for PC builders who need reliable airflow through restrictive cooling components such as 280 mm or 420 mm radiators. It also fits well in gaming towers, creative workstations, and home servers where maintaining stable temperatures is critical. The fans’ ability to operate quietly at low speeds makes them a good choice for noise-conscious users, while their high static pressure performance supports demanding cooling scenarios.

Any item kept will be deducted from the refund. Start a return by sending us an email. Items sent back without approval may be refused or returned to the sender.

Some items are not returnable: opened TVs/combos/monitors 37″+, opened computers or software, electronic downloads, opened consumables (film, paper, bulbs, media, ink), custom or modified computers, special-order or “nonreturnable” items, submerged underwater gear, and opened educational media.

After inspection, refunds are issued to the original payment method; allow 5–7 business days for the credit to post. Shipping, handling, customs duties, and import taxes are nonrefundable. If an item is used, incomplete, or not in original condition, a 30% restocking fee may apply. Direct exchanges are not offered; purchase the replacement and return the original for a refund.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
