Detailed Product Features and Specifications

The Dayco Curved Radiator Hose 70832 is a dual i.d. hose constructed from EPDM, a synthetic rubber known for its resistance to heat, ozone, and coolant chemicals. This hose features two different inside diameters—1 1/4 inch on one end and 1 3/8 inch on the other—ensuring a secure connection between radiator and engine components. It does not include a heat shield or protective sleeve, which is typical for this hose type and application.

Its black color and 11 1/2 inch trunk height make it compatible with specific engine bay configurations.
