What material is this coolant hose made from?

This coolant hose is made from EPDM rubber, which is known for its resistance to heat and coolant chemicals. This helps ensure it lasts a long time under the hood.

Why is a molded hose better than a universal one?

A molded hose is shaped to fit a specific application, like the lower radiator hose on your vehicle. This prevents kinking and ensures optimal coolant flow, unlike a universal hose that might require cutting and still not fit perfectly.

Does this hose come with clamps?

This part number is for the molded coolant hose only. Clamps are typically sold separately and are recommended to be replaced when installing a new hose.

Product Details

This Gates molded coolant hose is constructed from a heat-resistant EPDM rubber compound, which is key for handling the high temperatures found in your engine bay. It's specifically shaped to fit the lower radiator hose position on a variety of vehicles, including the 1999-2002 Suzuki Esteem with the 1.8L 4-cylinder engine, as well as older models like the 1962-1967 Chevrolet Chevy II and the 1974 Fiat 124.

The molded design means it follows the specific bends and curves needed to connect your radiator to the engine block without kinking or collapsing. This is important because a kinked hose can restrict coolant flow, leading to overheating. Gates uses a reinforced construction to ensure the hose stays strong and doesn't swell under pressure, helping to maintain proper engine temperature and prevent leaks.

Having the right shape and material for your coolant hose is crucial for keeping your engine running cool. This hose is a solid option for replacing a worn-out or damaged lower radiator hose on many different makes and models.
