Detailed Product Description

The Dayco Curved Radiator Hose 72624 is a branched radiator coolant hose constructed from EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber, known for its resistance to heat, ozone, and coolant chemicals. This hose features three connection ends: two with an inside diameter of 1 3/8 inches and one smaller branch with a 3/8 inch inside diameter, making it suitable for specific coolant routing in Chrysler and Dodge vehicles such as the 200, Avenger, and Sebring. The hose’s outside diameters are 1 3/4 inches for the larger ends and 3/8 inch for the smaller branch, ensuring a secure fit with corresponding radiator and engine fittings.

The Dayco Curved Radiator Hose line is designed to meet or exceed SAE J20R4 Class D-1 and SAE J1684 Type EC standards, which specify requirements for coolant hoses in automotive applications. This ensures the hose maintains integrity under pressure and temperature variations typical in engine cooling systems. The black EPDM material provides durability without the need for additional heat shields or protective sleeves.
