Continental Contitech 20029202 Heater Hose 50 Ft 5/8 in

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20029202 is a 50-foot automotive heater hose constructed from EPDM (Versigard) tube and cover material with spiral reinforcement. Designed for closed-loop engine coolant circuits, this hose handles a continuous temperature range of -40 degrees F to 300 degrees F, making it suitable for demanding underhood environments. The 5/8-inch inside diameter and blue EPDM cover are consistent with OEM-style heater circuit configurations. It meets SAE J20R3 standards, confirming suitability for engine coolant service. Automotive technicians and fleet service shops install this hose when replacing degraded heater supply or return lines in passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks.

This hose is used in automotive and light commercial vehicle heater circuits where coolant is routed from the engine to the heater core and back. The 50-foot roll length allows technicians to cut custom lengths for a wide range of vehicle platforms and underhood routing paths. It is well suited for shop stock in general automotive service, fleet maintenance facilities, and specialty repair operations that need a reliable cut-to-length heater hose solution. The EPDM construction resists degradation from coolant additives and antifreeze formulations commonly found in modern cooling systems.

Key Features

• EPDM tube and cover construction for resistance to coolant fluids and temperature extremes
• Spiral reinforcement provides structural integrity under system pressure and routing stress
• Temperature rated from -40 degrees F to 300 degrees F for year-round underhood service
• Meets SAE J20R3 standard for engine coolant hose performance
• 5/8-inch inside diameter suits common heater circuit connection sizes
• 50-foot roll length supports cut-to-fit installation across multiple vehicles

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement heater hose for automotive and light-duty vehicle heater circuits requiring a 5/8-inch inside diameter EPDM hose meeting SAE J20R3 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified automotive technician. Drain or capture coolant before removing existing hose to prevent spills and comply with local environmental regulations. Ensure clamps are positioned correctly and tightened to the hose fitting beads after cutting to the required length. Allow the cooling system to reach operating temperature and inspect all connections for leaks before returning the vehicle to service.
