Candela 3501418 Power Steering Return Hose 36-Inch x 5/8-Inch ID

The Candela 3501418 is a power steering return hose measuring 36 inches in length with a 5/8-inch inner diameter, designed as a direct-fit replacement for vehicles with hydraulic power steering systems. This hose carries low-pressure fluid from the steering rack or gearbox back to the power steering reservoir, completing the hydraulic circuit that enables smooth, effortless steering.

Key Features:

• OE-matching dimensions: 36-inch length with 5/8-inch inner diameter for a vehicle-specific fit
• Multi-layer reinforced rubber construction with a synthetic rubber outer coating that resists oil, ozone, and heat degradation
• Wide operating temperature range: -40°F to 275°F, exceeding original equipment requirements
• Low-pressure rated: Meets SAE J189 standards with a maximum working pressure of 250 PSI, suitable for low-pressure, high-temperature return line service
• Direct replacement: Engineered to match OEM form, fit, and function for a straightforward installation

This power steering return hose is an ideal choice for restoring a leaking or deteriorated return line. The durable rubber compound resists the chemical breakdown that can occur over time with exposure to power steering fluid, engine heat, and environmental contaminants, helping to maintain proper fluid levels and consistent steering performance.
