This part is listed by BMW as BMW part number 11521723363 and is described as Engine Fan Blade -for many 1988+ models - E30 325 (Super E), E30 325i, E36 318i, E28 528 (Super E), 535i/M5, E34 525i M20, E24 635CSi/M6, and Z3 1.9.
This is the fan with 11 blades. Earlier fans had 9 blades.
The engine fan works at low speeds to pull cooling air through the radiator. It should spin when coolant reaches a certain temperature measured by a sensor on the radiator. If your fan doesn't spin at all or spins slowly, check the temp sensor or the fan clutch.
This part is manufactured by an aftermarket supplier of European auto parts, including many cooling components. While not carrying OEM status, this part follows the design of the original very closely and uses similar materials. An aftermarket part may even have the same TUV approval as its OEM counterpart. The brand may even be OEM to another manufacturer besides BMW. This aftermarket brand has a two year warranty - the same as Genuine BMW and OEM brands.
