Gates 22010 Radiator Coolant Hose - Upper

Overview

Gates 22010 is a molded radiator coolant hose built for upper coolant routing in select Ford and Mercury applications. It uses EPDM construction and OEM-quality specifications to match the shape and function needed for a proper cooling-system repair.

This molded coolant hose is part of the Gates Molded Coolant Hose line, a broad replacement range covering upper, lower, bypass, heater, and other coolant applications. For buyers searching for a Ford Tempo coolant hose, Mercury Topaz upper radiator hose, or Ford Ghia molded coolant hose, this part number 22010 is the direct reference to check.

Key Features

• EPDM rubber construction for coolant-system service.
• Molded shape for a formed hose routing.
• OEM-quality specifications for replacement use.
• Designed for upper coolant applications.
• Part number 22010 for easy identification.

Detailed Description

Gates 22010 is a molded coolant hose intended for upper radiator hose applications on 1992-1994 Ford Ghia, 1992-1994 Ford Tempo, and 1992-1994 Mercury Topaz. The molded profile helps match the original hose path, while the EPDM material is commonly used in cooling systems for heat and coolant exposure. If you are replacing a worn Ford Tempo upper radiator hose or a Mercury Topaz coolant hose, this part number provides a fitment-specific replacement option.

The Gates Molded Coolant Hose line is engineered to cover a wide range of coolant routing needs, including upper, lower, bypass, and heater hose applications. That makes 22010 a practical choice when the original hose shape and dimensions matter for a clean replacement on Ford and Mercury cooling systems.

What It Helps Address

• Cracked or deteriorated coolant hose material.
• Incorrect hose shape after a previous repair.
• Coolant leaks from an aging upper hose.
• Fitment issues caused by using a universal hose.
• Cooling-system service on Ford Tempo and Mercury Topaz applications.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify hose routing, end diameters, and centerline length before installation. This hose is molded and should be matched to the original application path for proper alignment. Confirm the vehicle application by year, make, model, and position before ordering Gates 22010.
