Gates Premium Molded Coolant Radiator Hose EPDM

Gates Premium Molded Coolant Radiator Hose is a molded EPDM radiator hose, also sold as an upper or lower radiator hose or coolant hose. It carries engine coolant between the engine and the radiator. Each hose is molded to a specific shape so it routes and seats correctly without kinking or collapsing.

Key Features:

• EPDM rubber construction: Resists heat, ozone, weathering and coolant breakdown, so it lasts longer in demanding under-hood conditions.
• Molded shape: Molded to fit the original routing, so it gives a precise fit and reliable sealing at the connections.
• Reinforced build: Reinforcement helps the hose hold up under cooling system pressure and temperature cycling.
• Coolant compatibility: Works with common automotive coolants, including extended-life formulations.
• Quality manufacturing: Made by Gates, a long-time supplier of belts, hoses and cooling system components to the automotive aftermarket.

Replacing an aged radiator hose helps prevent leaks, coolant loss and overheating. It is a good idea to inspect the clamps and coolant at the same time as part of routine cooling system maintenance.
