Gates 21053 Molded Coolant Hose Overview

The Gates 21053 molded coolant hose is an OE-style radiator coolant hose built for specific Ford truck and SUV applications. Made from EPDM, it follows OEM-quality specifications to help restore proper coolant routing on vehicles that need a formed lower radiator hose.

Gates Molded Coolant Hose line covers upper, lower, bypass, heater, and other coolant applications, giving technicians a direct replacement option for radiator hose service on classic Ford models.

Key Features

  • EPDM construction for coolant-system durability
  • Molded shape for application-specific routing
  • Centerline length: 17.9 in. (455 mm)
  • End 1 inside diameter: 1.75 in. (44 mm)
  • End 2 inside diameter: 2.0 in. (51 mm)
  • No spring and no quick-connect fittings
  • Direct replacement for lower radiator coolant hose applications

Detailed Description

Gates 21053 is a molded radiator coolant hose engineered for vehicles that require a formed lower hose with the correct bends and diameters. The EPDM material is selected for cooling-system service, while the molded profile helps match factory hose routing and reduce the need for custom fitment. This part number is used across multiple Ford applications, including Ford Bronco, Ford F-100, Ford F-150, Ford F-250, and Ford F-350 models from the 1972-1979 range.

This part cross-references Dayco 70812 and Anchor 2053 for the same application. If you are replacing a worn or leaking lower radiator hose on a classic Ford Bronco or Ford F-Series truck, Gates 21053 provides a direct-fit replacement path for the specified configurations.

What It Helps Fix

  • Coolant leaks from cracked or aged lower radiator hoses
  • Improper hose routing caused by a collapsed or misshaped hose
  • Cooling-system service on Ford Bronco and Ford F-Series trucks
  • Replacement needs for vehicles with air conditioning or double-diameter hose requirements
  • Fitment issues on applications calling for a molded lower radiator hose

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the hose shape, end diameters, and centerline length against the removed part before installation. Confirm the vehicle’s radiator thickness and cooling-system configuration, since listed fitment includes notes for air conditioning, X.C., and specific radiator top thickness requirements. Inspect hose clamps, radiator necks, and adjoining coolant pipes for wear before installing the new hose.
