Continental 62267 Radiator Coolant Hose - Upper

Radiator Coolant Hose Overview

The Continental Molded radiator coolant hose, part number 62267, transfers glycol-based coolant through the cooling system with an exact OEM configuration for fit and routing. It is built with EPDM tube and cover materials and synthetic reinforcement to meet or exceed SAE 20R4EC Class D1 requirements.

Fits 1998-2004 Cadillac Seville, upper. This fitment-specific hose is shaped for the upper cooling circuit on the Cadillac Seville and matches the molded layout needed for proper installation. Part number 62267 is also referenced by cross numbers used for the same application.

Key Features

• EPDM tube and cover construction for coolant-system service.
• Synthetic reinforcement for added hose stability.
• Meets or exceeds SAE 20R4EC Class D1 specifications.
• Exact OEM configuration for direct routing and fit.
• 1.250-inch inside diameter at both ends.
• 40.520-inch hose length.

Detailed Description

Continental 62267 is a molded radiator coolant hose engineered for vehicles that require a precise upper hose shape and consistent coolant transfer. The molded design follows the original routing, while the EPDM construction and synthetic reinforcement provide the material structure specified for cooling-system use. This hose is a direct-fit replacement for the upper hose application on the Cadillac Seville, and the part number 62267 should be matched to the vehicle’s original hose configuration before installation. This part cross-references Dayco 72082 and Gates 22525 for the same application.

Common Replacement Issues

• Cracked or split coolant hose material.
• Coolant leaks at the hose body or connection points.
• Incorrect hose shape that prevents proper routing.
• Softening or swelling from age and heat exposure.
• Restricted cooling-system flow from a deteriorated hose.

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the hose shape, inside diameter, and length against the original part before installation. Inspect mating necks and clamps for wear, corrosion, or residue that could affect sealing. Proper routing is important on molded hoses to avoid kinks and contact with nearby components.

Quality Assurance

Continental Molded hoses are built to OE-style configuration standards and manufactured to meet or exceed SAE 20R4EC Class D1 specifications for cooling-system service.
