Each unit undergoes 100% quality inspection before packaging. Manufacturing conforms to OEM specification standards for cooling system hose applications.
IMPORTANT SAFETY: Allow engine to cool completely before removing radiator cap or cooling system components. Pressurized hot coolant can cause severe burns. Dispose of used coolant according to local environmental regulations.
Installation Guidelines:
- Drain coolant completely using drain pan
- Remove old hose by loosening clamps and twisting to break seal
- Clean mating surfaces and inspect for corrosion or debris
- Install new thermostat bypass hose, ensuring proper routing
- Secure clamps to specification without over-tightening
- Refill with recommended coolant mixture and bleed system
- Pressure test by running engine to operating temperature
Maintenance Schedule:
- Inspect thermostat hose every 40,000-50,000 km or annually
- Replace immediately if showing cracks, swelling, hardening, or weeping
- Replace coolant every 2 years or 50,000 km (conventional coolant)
- Inspect all cooling system hoses when replacing one component
- Standard packing: Neutral packaging in carton; original packaging available
- Suitable for: Truck repair workshops, fleet maintenance, spare parts distributors, export wholesalers
