What material is this radiator hose made from?

This Gates radiator hose is made from EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber. This material is chosen for its excellent resistance to heat, ozone, and coolant chemicals, which helps ensure a long service life.

Does this hose come with clamps?

This product listing is for the molded radiator hose only. Clamps are typically sold separately, and you will need to ensure you have the correct size and type for your specific application.

Why is a molded hose better than a universal flex hose?

A molded hose is shaped to fit the specific routing of your vehicle's cooling system, preventing kinks and ensuring optimal coolant flow. Universal flex hoses can sometimes be more difficult to route correctly and may restrict flow if not installed perfectly.
