• Listed for 5 applications across the TD and TAD series
• Cooling system hose
• Length and bore are not published - order by part number

🔌 Function

Carries coolant between two rigid connections, the flexible wall absorbing engine movement and vibration that would crack a solid pipe.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Coolant weeping or spraying from the hose or its end connections
• Hose gone soft and swollen, or hard and crazed with fine cracks
• Bulging or a soft spot where the wall has weakened
• Chafe mark where the hose has rubbed on a bracket or the block
• Ends ballooned or split where the clamps have bitten in

🛠️ Service Notes

• Renew the clamps with the hose and check the spigots for corrosion while the joint is open
• Squeeze the neighbouring hoses at the same time - a hose that has gone soft is rarely the only one on the engine
