Detailed Description

This Dayco radiator coolant hose is engineered as a curved, branched replacement for the lower cooling circuit on the Ford F-150. The EPDM rubber construction is suited for coolant exposure, while the dual 1 1/2-inch and dual 3/4-inch end dimensions support the hose’s branched routing. Part number 72896 is a direct fit for 2015-2017 Ford F-150 applications listed with tow package notes, making it a practical choice when replacing a worn or damaged coolant hose. Dayco 72896 is also identified by part number 72896 for catalog and service reference.

Common Replacement Reasons

  • Coolant leaks from cracked or aged hose material.
  • Softening, swelling, or collapse under operating temperature.
  • Restricted coolant flow caused by internal deterioration.
  • Loss of proper hose routing after damage or deformation.

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle’s lower hose routing, tow package configuration, and end diameters before installation. Match the hose shape and branch layout to the original part to ensure proper fitment on the cooling system. Inspect adjoining clamps, fittings, and coolant condition during service.

Quality Assurance

This hose is manufactured to SAE J20R4 Class D-1 and SAE J1684 Type EC standards for cooling-system hose applications.
