What material is this coolant hose made from?

This coolant hose is constructed from EPDM rubber. EPDM is chosen for its excellent resistance to heat and degradation from engine coolant, which helps ensure a longer service life.

Does this hose come with clamps?

This product listing is for the molded upper coolant hose only. Clamps are sold separately and are recommended to be replaced at the same time as the hose.

Why is a molded hose better than a universal one?

A molded hose is shaped to match the original factory routing. This prevents kinks and ensures optimal coolant flow, unlike universal hoses which may require cutting and can sometimes lead to restricted flow or stress on the hose material.

Product Details

Gates is a well-known name when it comes to belts and hoses, and this molded upper coolant hose is built to keep your classic Ford or Mercury running cool. This hose is specifically shaped to fit the upper radiator hose routing for a range of vehicles, including the 1964-1966 Ford Thunderbird, 1961-1967 Lincoln Continental, and 1961-1966 Mercury Monterey.

This hose is constructed from EPDM rubber, which is known for its resistance to heat and coolant degradation, helping it last longer in your engine bay. Its molded shape means it follows the factory routing precisely, avoiding kinks or stress points that can occur with universal hose setups. This ensures proper coolant flow to your radiator, which is crucial for preventing your engine from overheating, especially in older vehicles.

When replacing your coolant hose, it's always a good idea to inspect your radiator cap and thermostat as well, as these components work together to keep your engine at the right temperature.
