It measures 3 feet in length with a 3-inch inside diameter and is rated for a maximum working pressure of 150 psi. The hose handles a temperature range of -40 degrees F to 260 degrees F, making it suitable for demanding under-hood environments. Licensed HVAC, fleet, and mechanical technicians rely on this hose for engine cooling system replacements and retrofits where a straight, large-bore configuration is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hose is suited for use in automotive, commercial vehicle, and stationary engine cooling systems that require a straight radiator hose with a 3-inch bore. Its EPDM construction resists heat, ozone, and coolant degradation over extended service intervals. Typical applications include upper or lower radiator connections on large-displacement engines, generator sets, and industrial equipment where a straight hose run is specified. Installers working on diesel or gasoline engines with 3-inch coolant ports will find this a direct fit for straight-run configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVersgard EPDM tube and cover material for heat and ozone resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-foot straight length provides flexibility for custom-cut or full-length installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch inside diameter fits large-bore coolant connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e150 psi maximum working pressure handles high-demand cooling systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTemperature rated from -40 degrees F to 260 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack EPDM cover resists cracking and surface degradation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement straight radiator hose for large-bore cooling system applications requiring a 3-inch inside diameter and straight configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or service technician. Drain and depressurize the cooling system fully before removing any existing hose. Ensure hose clamps are rated for the connection diameter and torqued to the vehicle or equipment manufacturer's specification. Inspect mating coolant ports for corrosion or damage before fitting the new hose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 260 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Versgard EPDM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCover Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: EPDM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.03 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CONTINENTAL CONTITECH\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20017231\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CONTINENTAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51564207604018,"sku":"20017231","price":222.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f077ddcae472d6ee1c22ddfef99773b9_e2a51e6b-c7cf-4f01-9209-06d1f519dae4.jpg?v=1786514242","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/continental-contitech-20017231-straight-radiator-hose","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
