Gates 52106 Plant Master Molded Coolant Hose

The Gates 52106 is a Plant Master Molded Coolant Hose engineered for reliable engine cooling system performance. Pre-shaped to fit specific applications, this molded radiator hose is manufactured to OEM-equivalent specifications, making it a direct replacement for upper, lower, bypass, and other coolant circuit hoses.

Key Features:

• EPDM Construction: Features an EPDM tube, synthetic fiber knit reinforcement, and a heat- and ozone-resistant EPDM cover for long-lasting durability
• Electrochemical Degradation Resistance: Engineered with compounds specifically designed to resist electrochemical degradation (ECD), the leading cause of coolant hose failure
• Vacuum Collapse Resistance: Re-engineered materials resist vacuum collapse, reducing the need for internal support springs in many applications
• Wide Temperature Range: Rated for use from -40°F to +257°F (-40°C to +125°C)
• SAE Certified: Meets SAE 20R3 EC Class D1 for under 25mm (1 in.) ID and SAE 20R4 EC Class D1 for 25mm (1 in.) ID and over
• Pre-Molded Fit: Factory-molded shape ensures a precise, leak-free installation without cutting or bending

Important Notes: Not for use in fuel or oil transfer applications. Gates recommends replacing hose clamps each time a new coolant hose is installed to ensure a proper seal.

Gates is a global leader in power transmission and fluid power products, with over a century of engineering expertise. The Plant Master series represents Gates' commitment to OE-quality replacement parts for today's demanding engine cooling systems.
