These hoses are designed to withstand high temperatures and pressures typical in automotive cooling systems. The molded construction provides a precise fit, reducing the risk of leaks and improving overall system reliability. Part number 28357 is a representative product within this line, offering specific dimensions and features tailored for certain vehicle applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDetailed Product Description and Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis radiator coolant hose features a molded silicone construction that resists heat, ozone, and aging better than traditional rubber hoses. The hose has two different inside diameters on each end—2.25 inches (57 mm) on one end and 1.88 inches (48 mm) on the other—allowing it to connect components with varying sizes. With a centerline length of 20.5 inches (521 mm), it fits specific cooling system layouts. The absence of internal springs and quick connect fittings means the hose maintains flexibility while providing a secure coolant path. This part is suitable for vehicles requiring a molded silicone hose with these exact dimensions and specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Issues Addressed\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement of worn or cracked radiator coolant hoses in cooling systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevention of coolant leaks caused by hose degradation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImprovement of coolant flow efficiency in vehicles with specific hose size requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMitigation of overheating issues due to compromised hose integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpgrading to silicone hoses for enhanced heat resistance in demanding engine environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnsure the vehicle’s cooling system is cool before removing the old hose to avoid burns. Verify that the hose dimensions match the vehicle’s radiator and engine connections, specifically the 2.25 inch and 1.88 inch inside diameters. Use appropriate clamps to secure the hose ends firmly without over-tightening, which could damage the silicone material. Inspect the hose routing to avoid contact with sharp edges or moving parts. Part number 28357 is designed for direct replacement in compatible vehicles requiring these specific measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGates manufactures the Molded Coolant Hose (Silicone) line to meet industry standards for durability and performance.
