Detailed Product Description

The Gates Molded Coolant Hose 24723 is designed to meet the demands of modern cooling systems requiring precise coolant flow paths. Its EPDM and plastic composition provides resistance to high temperatures, ozone, and coolant chemicals, ensuring durability and longevity. The hose’s modular design includes three branches with varying inside diameters, allowing it to connect multiple radiator or engine components efficiently. With a centerline length of 1080 mm, this molded hose fits applications needing extended coolant routing without compromising flexibility or strength.

This part is suitable for vehicles that require a molded radiator coolant hose with multiple branches and specific diameter connections. The absence of springs and quick connect fittings indicates a direct-fit installation requiring clamps or OEM connectors.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement of cracked or leaking radiator coolant hoses in multi-branch cooling systems
• Addressing coolant flow restrictions caused by deteriorated or collapsed hoses
