Pro-Tec Yamaha FX-1 701 Moflow intake Grate
Product Development
The research and development engineers at Pro-Tec
have spent countless hours testing various intake grate designs for the YamahaFX-1 701 hull while developing the Moflow intake grate. To improve the performance
of the Yamaha FX-1, Pro-Tec considers the many dynamics of water flow across
the bottom of the hull and intake grate to produce the best possible intake grate available. Intake grate shape, and fit are all necessary for proper
function and optimum performance from an intake grate.
Performance Improvement
The Pro-Tec Yamaha FX-1 Moflow intake grate will
improve handling, improve acceleration and reduce porpoising without
sacrificing top speed. Handling and porpoising are improved by the scoop grate
design to keep the bow of the hull planted in the water. Planting the bow of
the hull into the water provides better and more precise cornering allowing you
to go faster through the corners resulting in lower lap times and more success
on the race course. Better handling also reduces rider fatigue allowing you to
go faster for a longer period of time. It doesn’t matter if you are a
professional racer, amateur free rider or weekend recreational rider, a Pro-TecFX-1 Moflow intake grate will improve the performance of your boat and increase
the fun factor for you.
Manufacturing Process
All Pro-Tec Moflow intake grates are cast from A319
aluminum and heat treated for maximum strength. The 11-219MA FX-1 intake grate is powder coated silver. Powder
coating the intake grate provides corrosion protection and a long lasting
professional finish.
Ultimate Performance
For the ultimate in performance it is recommended to
use a Pro-Tec performance ride plate and Moflow intake grate together. This
combination will improve handling, reduce porpoising, improve acceleration,
reduce jet pump cavitation and improve rough water hook up. The Pro-Tec YamahaFX-1 701 performance ride plate and Moflow intake grate were used by Chris
MacCluggage to set the slalom world record and clinch the World Championship.
Some of the riders who have won Championships while using Pro-Tec products are
Chris MacClugagge, Victor Sheldon, Brent Flambures, Rob Flores, Mike Yellich,
Tera Laho, Jim Goodchild, Lisa Barsby, Ricky Sneddon, Topher Baretto, Paul Del
Rosario and many others.
Moflow Intake Grates
Pro-Tec Moflow intake grates are also available for
many other Yamaha personal watercraft and offer the same performance benefits
as our FX-1 intake grate. Pro-Tec Yamaha Moflow intake grates are available for
the following models of Yamaha Wave Runners. All Pro-Tec Moflow intake grates
are powder coated silver unless noted then they are powder coated black.

Open Intake Grates
Besides the Pro-Tec Moflow intake grates Pro-Tec
also offers a line of open style intake grates for some Yamaha Wave Runner
models. The open intake grates are an improvement over the stock intake grate
but do not offer the same type of rough water hook up as the Moflow intake grate line.

Trust The Parts The Pros Trust !
If you have never used a Pro-Tec product in the past
rest assured that we take every precaution to make sure that every item we
manufacture meets or exceeds the performance of the original equipment part you
are replacing. We do not make “generic” one type fits all products. Every item
that we develop is developed and tested on the specific model it was designed
for. During our testing we set specific parameters that must be met or exceeded
before we bring an item to market. If the item we are developing does not meet
our specific parameters that item will be scrapped and we move on to the next
item. Once we have developed and item that meets our standards we will do a
small production run so we can re-test a production unit. Once the production
unit is tested and verified that it meets our performance standards then and
only then will we bring it to market so you can enjoy the rewards of our hard
work and dedication to improving the performance of your Yamaha personal
watercraft.
