Gates 51453 Premium Modular Coolant Hose Assembly

The Gates 51453 Premium Modular Coolant Hose is an OEM-quality replacement radiator hose engineered for precise fit and reliable performance. This application-specific modular assembly is designed with integrated components to meet original equipment specifications.

Key Features:

• Modular assembly design with integrated OE components such as hose branches, quick-connectors, sensors, and restrictors
• Manufactured to OEM specifications for accurate fit and function
• EPDM tube construction with synthetic fiber knit reinforcement for durability
• Engineered to resist electrochemical degradation (ECD), the leading cause of coolant hose failure
• Heat and ozone resistant EPDM cover for extended service life
• Temperature range: -40°F to +275°F (-40°C to +135°C)
• Meets SAE 20R3 EC Class D1 and SAE 20R4 EC Class D1 standards

Gates modular coolant hoses eliminate the need to purchase multiple separate components, providing a complete replacement solution in one assembly. The advanced EPDM compound resists the electrochemical degradation that causes micro-cracks in standard hoses, ensuring longer service life and reliable engine cooling system performance. Gates recommends replacing hose clamps each time a new coolant hose is installed.
