Made from EPDM, a synthetic rubber known for its excellent resistance to heat, ozone, and coolant chemicals, this hose maintains integrity under high-temperature engine environments. The branched hose configuration features three connection points with inside diameters of 1 9\/32 inches for both End 1 and End 2, and 25\/32 inches for End 3, allowing it to fit complex cooling system layouts precisely. The outside diameters correspond accordingly to ensure secure connections. Additionally, the hose includes a protective sleeve to guard against abrasion, although it does not contain a heat shield. It meets SAE J20R4 Class D-1 and SAE J1684 Type EC standards, confirming its suitability for automotive coolant applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Curved Radiator Hose Product Line\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDayco's Curved Radiator Hose line focuses on delivering hoses with specific bends and branches to accommodate complex engine bay configurations.
