Continental Contitech 20017210 Straight Radiator Hose

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20017210 is a straight radiator hose designed for coolant transfer in automotive and light commercial engine cooling systems. Constructed from Versgard EPDM, this hose handles a maximum working pressure of 150 psi and a maximum temperature of 260 degrees F, with cold-side flexibility rated down to -40 degrees F. The 1.75-inch inside diameter and 3-foot straight length make it a practical choice for direct-fit or cut-to-length cooling system service. HVAC and automotive technicians rely on EPDM construction for its resistance to heat, ozone, and coolant degradation over extended service intervals.

This hose is suited for replacement and maintenance work on radiator circuits in passenger vehicles, light trucks, and small commercial equipment where a straight hose run is required. The black EPDM tube and cover construction meets the demands of engine bay environments. Service shops and fleet maintenance operations commonly stock this hose for routine cooling system overhauls and emergency replacements requiring a full 3-foot straight section.
