Gates Cut to Fit 90 Degree Molded Heater Hose

This is the Gates Cut to Fit 90 Degree Molded Heater Hose, part number 28474. It's designed to give you the flexibility to create a custom fit for your vehicle's heater hose system. Because it's a molded hose with a specific 90-degree bend, it can help you avoid kinks and ensure proper coolant flow where space is tight, which is common in many cars and trucks. This hose is a popular choice for mechanics and DIYers working on a wide range of vehicles, including models like the Chevrolet Astro, Ford Ranger, and Acura TL.

The 'cut to fit' aspect means you get a length of high-quality Gates hose that you can trim to the exact size needed for your repair. This is especially helpful when replacing a heater hose that has a unique routing or requires a precise length. Gates uses robust materials in their hoses to withstand the heat and pressure found in a vehicle's cooling system, ensuring it holds up over time. You'll want to have a hose cutter or a sharp blade handy to make a clean cut when you're ready to install it.
