Gates 22063 Radiator Coolant Hose

Gates 22063 Molded Coolant Hose

The Gates 22063 molded coolant hose is an OE-style radiator coolant hose built for specific vehicle applications that require a formed EPDM hose with a 1.05 in. inside diameter at both ends and an 11.5 in. centerline length. It is shaped for upper, lower, bypass, heater, and other coolant routing needs where a molded replacement is required.

Compatible With 1989-1994 Nissan Maxima and 1993-2002 Nissan Quest, this molded coolant hose also fits 1993-2002 Mercury Villager applications. Gates molded coolant hose coverage is broad across radiator hose replacement needs, making it a practical choice when replacing a worn or leaking hose on these vehicles.

Product Details

Gates 22063 is a molded radiator coolant hose made to OEM-quality specifications for vehicles that need a pre-formed hose shape rather than a straight universal hose. The EPDM material is commonly used in cooling systems because it handles heat and coolant exposure well. This hose is listed for 1989-1994 Nissan Maxima, 1993-2002 Nissan Quest, and 1993-2002 Mercury Villager applications, making it a fitment-specific replacement for common cooling system service. This part cross-references Dayco 71750 and Continental 63299 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Coolant leaks from a cracked, swollen, or aged hose
• Improper hose routing caused by a collapsed or misshaped hose
• Cooling system service on a Nissan Maxima, Nissan Quest, or Mercury Villager
• Replacement of a molded hose that no longer holds its original form
• Restoring secure coolant flow between connected engine cooling components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify hose routing and end diameters before installation. Inspect adjoining necks, clamps, and nearby cooling system components for wear, corrosion, or residue before installing the new hose. Drain coolant as needed, transfer the hose along the original path, and confirm that the molded shape is seated without twisting or kinking. After installation, refill the cooling system and check for leaks at operating temperature.

Quality Assurance

Gates manufactures molded coolant hoses to OEM-quality specifications for replacement use in radiator and heater hose applications. Part number 22063 is built as a formed EPDM hose for the listed vehicle applications and cooling system routing requirements.
