Rubber radiator hose

The rubber radiator hose is an oil-resistant thick-walled hose, used to handle hot or cold water and car coolant. The rubber hose and cover make the rubber radiator hose durable and resistant to extreme low or high temperature, chemicals, oil and other elements that corrode the coolant hose in heavy-duty applications.For the safety of the car and you, the rubber radiator hose needs to be replaced regularly.

How often should the automobile rubber radiator hose be replaced?

Most car manufacturers recommend replacing the rubber radiator hose every four years. Of course, this will vary with the mileage-a car that drives a lot may need to change the hose earlier.

How to judge whether the rubber radiator hose needs to be replaced?

There are a few key things to focus on to see if the life of your rubber radiator hose is about to expire:

Kinks

Stiff or brittle texture

Surface cracks

Bulges or bubbles

Check the rubber radiator hose and watch for kinks or obvious signs of wear. Squeeze the rubber radiator hoses (only when they are cooling) and see how they feel. If the hose is soft and flexible, it does not need to be replaced. However, if the hose becomes hard, cracked or brittle, it needs to be replaced. When squeezing the hose, check for small cracks on the surface. These can easily become big problems because they are the main point of "blowing" the hose. You can also check where the hose is connected to the inlet or outlet pipe. Look for bumps or bubbles around the hose clamp, as this is a sign of impending failure.

The hose can be used for a long time, but it is always better to replace the hose before it fails.
