Gates 211-501-44-82 Lower Radiator Coolant Hose Mercedes-Benz OEM Replacement

The Gates 211-501-44-82 is a precision-engineered replacement lower radiator coolant hose designed as a direct OEM-equivalent fit for select 1999–2006 Mercedes-Benz vehicles. This hose routes coolant from the engine to the bottom of the radiator, playing a critical role in maintaining proper engine operating temperature and preventing overheating.

Gates is a globally recognized leader in automotive fluid power and cooling system components, manufacturing hoses that meet or exceed original equipment standards. This replacement hose is built to deliver the same fit, form, and function as the factory part without the dealership price.

Key Features:

• OEM-equivalent design — engineered to match the original Mercedes-Benz part number 211-501-44-82 for a precise, leak-free fit
• Electrochemical degradation (ECD) resistance — Gates hoses are specifically constructed to resist ECD, the leading cause of premature radiator hose failure
• Heat, ozone, and vacuum-collapse resistant — built to withstand the demanding under-hood environment of modern engines
• Molded construction — factory-molded to retain its shape and ensure a secure connection at both ends without kinking or collapsing
• EPDM rubber construction — durable ethylene propylene diene monomer material provides excellent resistance to coolant, heat, and weathering
• Direct lower radiator connection — routes coolant to the radiator bottom for efficient heat exchange and cooling system circulation

Replacing worn or cracked coolant hoses at regular service intervals is essential to preventing coolant leaks, overheating, and costly engine damage. The Gates 211-501-44-82 makes it easy to restore cooling system integrity with a professional-grade part that installs like the original.
