What is the material of this coolant hose?

This coolant hose is constructed from heat-resistant EPDM rubber for both the inner tube and the outer cover. This material is chosen for its ability to withstand high temperatures and pressures found in engine cooling systems.

Does this hose come with clamps?

This Gates coolant hose does not include installation clamps. You will need to use your existing clamps or purchase new ones separately to ensure a secure fit.

Why is a molded hose better than a universal one?

A molded hose is shaped to match the original factory routing for your specific vehicle. This ensures a precise fit, preventing kinks or stress points that can occur when trying to force a universal hose into place, leading to a more reliable installation.

Product Details

This upper molded coolant hose from Gates is built specifically for the 2003-2010 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 models equipped with the 5.9L diesel engine. It's designed to replace the original hose, ensuring a direct fit and proper coolant circulation to your engine's radiator. Keeping your cooling system in good shape is key, especially with a diesel engine that works hard.

Gates uses a heat-resistant EPDM rubber compound for the inner tube and cover, which is important for handling the high temperatures and pressures found in a diesel cooling system. This material helps prevent premature cracking and leaks, giving you a reliable part that's made to last. The molded shape means it follows the factory routing precisely, making installation straightforward without needing to bend or force a universal hose into place.

When you're replacing your coolant hoses, it's a good idea to check the condition of the lower hose and thermostat as well. Having a complete, leak-free cooling system is crucial for preventing overheating and maintaining engine performance, particularly on these powerful diesel trucks.
