Dayco Curved Radiator Hose 72245

Dayco 72245 is a curved radiator coolant hose built for lower cooling-system routing where a formed hose is required. Made from EPDM rubber with a black finish, it uses a single I.D. hose design with 1 1/2-inch inside diameter ends for a direct replacement-style fit in the listed applications.

Compatible With Ford Escape, Mazda Tribute, Mercury Mariner, and select Buick, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models, this lower radiator hose follows the OE-style curved shape needed to connect the cooling system without forcing the hose into position. The Dayco Curved Radiator Hose line focuses on formed coolant hoses that match vehicle-specific routing and SAE requirements.

Common Cooling System Issues

  • Lower radiator hose cracking or splitting
  • Coolant leaks at the hose body or connection points
  • Collapsed or softened hose material from age and heat
  • Poor hose routing caused by a worn or misshaped original hose
  • Cooling-system service needs on Ford Escape, Mazda Tribute, or Mercury Mariner lower hose applications

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle year, make, model, and lower hose routing before installation. Compare the original hose shape and end diameters to Dayco 72245 to confirm proper alignment with the radiator and engine connections. Inspect clamps, necks, and nearby cooling-system components for wear or corrosion before reassembly.

Quality Assurance

Dayco specifies this hose to SAE J20R4 Class D-1 and SAE J1684 Type EC standards, supporting its use in automotive cooling-system service. The EPDM construction and formed design reflect a replacement hose built for the listed OE-style applications.
