Product Details

Part number 21870 is part of Gates’ Molded Coolant Hose line, a range focused on replacement hoses for upper radiator hose, lower radiator hose, bypass hose, heater hose, and related cooling-system connections. The molded construction helps match the original hose shape, which is important when replacing a formed hose on a Honda Civic, Acura, or other vehicle using this style of coolant routing. Gates 21870 is specified with EPDM material, a 34 mm end inside diameter on both ends, and a 726 mm centerline length.

This part cross-references Dayco 71488 and 71612 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Coolant leaks from a cracked or aged radiator hose
  • Softening, swelling, or collapse in an original molded hose
  • Improper hose routing caused by a misshaped replacement
  • Overheating concerns linked to restricted coolant flow
  • Service delays when replacing a formed hose on Honda Civic or similar applications

Installation Notes

Verify hose routing, end diameters, and centerline length before installation. Inspect adjoining fittings, clamps, and coolant passages for wear or contamination, and replace damaged components as needed. Confirm the hose follows the original molded path without twist or tension, then refill and bleed the cooling system according to the vehicle service procedure.

Quality Assurance

Gates manufactures its Molded Coolant Hose line to OEM-quality specifications for radiator hose replacement service. Part number 21870 is built as a molded EPDM coolant hose for formed-fit cooling-system applications.
