The coolant hose or radiator hose transports the coolant between the radiator, engine and other components of the cooling system.
different types of radiator hoses
There are two main types of coolant hoses: universal radiator hoses and preformed, vehicle-specific radiator hoses. These two types also differ in terms of materials.
- Rubber hoses are the most common; they are inexpensive but need to be replaced more often.
- Silicone hoses are more durable, flexible, heat resistant, and often come in a variety of colors.
- Metal hoses are the most durable, can withstand higher temperatures and have better heat dissipation.
