Gates 22326 Upper Radiator Coolant Hose - Curved Molded OE Replacement

The Gates 22326 is a precision-molded upper radiator coolant hose engineered as a direct OE replacement for your vehicle's cooling system. Pre-curved to match the exact routing of the original hose, it installs quickly and seals reliably without modification.

Constructed with an EPDM rubber tube, synthetic fiber knit reinforcement, and a heat- and ozone-resistant EPDM cover, this hose is built to withstand the demanding thermal and chemical environment of a modern cooling system. The EPDM compound is specifically engineered to resist electrochemical degradation (ECD) — the leading cause of coolant hose failure — helping the hose last longer and maintain system integrity.
