What material is this coolant hose made from?

This upper coolant hose is constructed from heat-resistant EPDM rubber. This material is chosen for its ability to withstand the high temperatures and chemical exposure found in a cooling system.

Does this hose come with clamps?

This part number is for the molded coolant hose only. Clamps are typically sold separately, so be sure to have the correct size clamps ready for installation.

Why is a molded hose better than a universal hose?

A molded hose is shaped to match the original factory routing. This makes installation much easier and ensures there are no kinks or tight bends that could restrict coolant flow, unlike a universal hose which may require more effort to fit correctly.

Product Details

When you're replacing the cooling system components on your Geo Metro, Chevrolet Metro, or Suzuki Swift, a cracked or leaking upper radiator hose can really put a damper on things. This molded coolant hose from Gates is built to fit the 1.0L 3-cylinder engine found in many of these vehicles, ensuring a proper seal and efficient coolant flow to keep your engine running at the right temperature.

Gates uses a heat-resistant EPDM rubber construction for this hose, which is important because it needs to withstand the constant cycle of hot coolant and engine bay temperatures without degrading. The molded shape means it follows the factory routing precisely, making installation straightforward without needing to fight a stiff, universal hose. This particular hose is designed to connect your engine's thermostat housing to the radiator, a critical pathway for your engine's cooling.

This hose is a solid option for many small import vehicles, including the Subaru Brat and DL models from the late 70s. Always double-check the fitment data to confirm it's the right part for your specific year and model, as coolant hoses are vital for preventing overheating.
