Continental 62435 Radiator Coolant Hose - Upper

Radiator Coolant Hose Overview

Continental Molded radiator coolant hose 62435 is built for cooling-system service where exact routing and reliable coolant transfer matter. It fits upper hose applications on select Geo Prizm and Toyota Corolla models, with OEM-style shaping for a precise installation.

Key Features

• EPDM tube and cover with synthetic reinforcement for coolant-system durability.
• Meets or exceeds SAE 20R4EC Class D1 specifications.
• Exact OEM configuration for accurate hose routing and fit.
• 1.190 in. inside diameter at both ends with an 8.630 in. length.
• Continental Molded hose design for a formed replacement profile.

Detailed Description

This radiator coolant hose is engineered to move glycol-based coolant through the vehicle cooling system while maintaining the formed shape needed for proper routing. Continental 62435 uses an EPDM tube and cover with synthetic reinforcement, and its OEM configuration supports a direct replacement profile for upper hose service on 1993-1997 Geo Prizm and 1989-1997 Toyota Corolla applications. The part number 62435 is also referenced in interchange listings for related cooling-system replacements.

Continental Molded is the product line for formed hoses that follow the original routing profile more closely than universal hose stock. For buyers searching for a Toyota Corolla upper radiator hose or a Geo Prizm molded coolant hose, this line focuses on fit accuracy and material construction rather than generic cut-to-fit replacement.

What It Is Used For

• Replacing a cracked or deteriorated upper radiator hose.
• Restoring coolant flow between cooling-system components.
• Correcting hose routing issues caused by a misshaped or collapsed hose.
• Addressing coolant seepage at hose connections.
• Servicing a molded hose that no longer holds its original form.

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1993-1997 Geo Prizm, upper. Fits 1993-1997 Toyota Corolla, upper. Fits 1989-1992 Toyota Corolla, upper. Verify hose diameter, length, and routing against the removed part before installation. Inspect clamps, necks, and adjacent cooling-system components for wear or corrosion during service.

Quality Assurance

Continental states that this hose meets or exceeds SAE 20R4EC Class D1 specifications. The molded OEM configuration is intended to match the original hose shape for accurate fitment on the listed applications. Part number 62435 is used for this radiator coolant hose application.
