Dayco Curved Radiator Hose for Spark

Dayco 72985 is a curved radiator coolant hose built for the upper cooling circuit on select Chevrolet Spark models. Made from EPDM and finished in black, it is shaped to match the routing needed for 2013-2015 Chevrolet Spark upper hose applications.

Key Features

  • EPDM construction for coolant-system service
  • Black finish for a clean OE-style appearance
  • 1 1/8 in. inside diameter at both ends
  • 1 7/8 in. outside diameter at both ends
  • Single I.D. hose design
  • Built to SAE J20R4 Class D-1 and SAE J1684 Type EC specifications
  • Curved radiator hose profile for upper hose routing

Product Details

This Dayco curved radiator hose is engineered for the upper radiator connection on Chevrolet Spark cooling systems. The EPDM rubber construction is selected for coolant exposure, while the curved shape supports the routing required in the engine bay. Dayco 72985 is a direct-fit upper radiator coolant hose for 2013, 2014, and 2015 Chevrolet Spark models.

Dayco’s Curved Radiator Hose line focuses on replacement hoses formed to match vehicle-specific cooling layouts. For applications like the Chevrolet Spark, that means a hose profile and dimensions that align with the original upper hose path rather than a universal cut-to-fit design.

What It Helps Address

  • Cracked or aged upper radiator hose material
  • Coolant leaks at the upper hose connection
  • Restricted coolant flow from a deteriorated hose
  • Improper hose routing from a misshaped replacement
  • Cooling-system service on a 2013-2015 Chevrolet Spark

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2013-2015 Chevrolet Spark, upper. Verify end diameters and routing before installation, and inspect hose clamps, necks, and adjacent cooling components for wear or corrosion. Confirm the hose follows the original upper radiator path without twisting or kinking.

Quality Assurance

Dayco 72985 is manufactured to SAE J20R4 Class D-1 and SAE J1684 Type EC requirements for radiator hose applications. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
