The Gates 24516 is a premium molded coolant hose engineered to deliver OEM-quality performance for radiator and heater coolant applications. Designed to resist electrochemical degradation, the leading cause of coolant hose failure, this precision-molded hose ensures reliable coolant transfer and optimal engine temperature regulation.

Key Features:

• EPDM rubber construction with synthetic fiber knit reinforcement for superior durability
• Pre-shaped design ensures proper fit and perfectly sealed connections
• Engineered to resist electrochemical degradation (ECD) that causes micro-cracks and premature failure
• Heat and ozone resistant cover withstands extreme operating conditions
• Temperature range: -40°F to +275°F (-40°C to +135°C)
• Meets SAE 20R4 EC Class D1 specifications for quality and performance
• Approved for marine applications

Gates molded coolant hoses are manufactured to OEM specifications, providing a direct replacement that saves time and eliminates the need for dealer-only parts. The advanced EPDM compound resists vacuum collapse, chemical coolants, and thermal cycling for extended service life. Gates recommends replacing hose clamps each time a new coolant hose is installed for optimal performance.
