Overview

Gates 18104 is a molded heater hose built in an OEM-style shape for tight engine compartments. It is made from EPDM and is suitable for coolant, water, and air service, with marine application approval.

Key Features

  • Factory-molded design follows the intended hose routing.
  • EPDM construction resists heat and coolant exposure.
  • Small inside diameter suits compact HVAC and coolant connections.
  • Works in coolant, water, and air applications.
  • Gates Molded Heater Hose line focuses on formed replacement hose shapes.

Detailed Description

This Gates heater hose, part number 18104, is a molded replacement hose for applications that require a formed path rather than a straight universal hose. The 10.9-inch centerline length and 7 mm end inside diameter support compact routing in confined spaces, while the molded profile helps maintain the correct hose shape during installation. It is a practical choice for HVAC and coolant routing on vehicles such as the Saturn Vue, Geo Metro, and Mazda Protege when the listed fitment matches the original hose path. This part cross-references Baldwin 18104 for the same application.

What It Is Used For

  • Replacing a formed heater or coolant hose with the correct molded shape.
  • Restoring coolant flow through a damaged, cracked, or hardened hose.
  • Addressing leaks caused by age-related hose deterioration.
  • Replacing a hose that no longer holds its original routing.
  • Serving as a formed hose solution for HVAC-related coolant paths.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the year, make, model, and hose routing against the fitment list before ordering. Match the listed position and notes exactly, since this part is used in multiple throttle body, pipe, valve, and engine routing locations. Inspect adjoining fittings and clamps for wear before installation, and confirm the hose follows the original molded path without kinks or twist.

Quality Assurance

Gates designs this molded hose in an OEM-style form for applications that require a precise fit and consistent routing. The EPDM material and formed construction support dependable service in coolant and HVAC-related hose applications.
