Description
Overview:
This straight radiator hose is a 1 metre length of 51 mm internal diameter EPDM rubber tubing designed for engine cooling systems in vehicles, plant, generators, compressors, and other industrial machinery. Manufactured from heat‐resistant EPDM with a smooth black cover and high‐tensile textile reinforcement, it copes well with under‐bonnet temperatures and harsh environments. Suitable for water and glycol‐based coolants, it helps transfer coolant between the radiator, engine, and ancillary components to maintain stable operating temperatures. The hose carries MPN 124 0196 and features a 60 mm outer diameter for a robust wall and long service life. It is a practical replacement for worn or perished coolant lines where a straight 1 m section can be cut to size as required.
Key Features:
- 51 mm I/D and 60 mm O/D for a sturdy wall thickness of approximately 4.5 mm
- EPDM rubber construction for excellent heat, ageing, ozone, and weather resistance
- Textile-reinforced for strength and kink resistance under typical cooling system pressures
- Operating temperature range: −40°C to +125°C for all‐season reliability
- Pressure rating: 4 bar (58 psi, approx. 400 kPa) for common automotive and industrial cooling circuits
- Smooth outer cover helps reduce abrasion and eases routing through tight bays
- Supplied as a 1 m straight length; can be cut to suit the installation
- Weight: 1140 g/m (approx. 1.14 kg per metre) for a durable, heavy‐duty build
- Compatible with water and glycol coolant mixtures; not intended for oil or fuel transfer
- Fits standard 51 mm hose tails on radiators, pipework, and coolant fittings
Typical Applications:
Replacement coolant hose for cars, vans, agricultural tractors, forklifts, construction plant, generators, compressors, pumps, and static engines. Ideal for radiator to engine connections, header tank lines, intercooler coolant runs (where EPDM is suitable), and general coolant circulation on industrial engines operating within the stated pressure and temperature limits.
