Running a big diesel on a medium-duty haul truck and need to swap out the upper coolant hose. This one measures right at 2 inch ID where it connects. That gonna be a match?
Answer by: Customer Support on Mar 4, 2026, 8:56 AM
A 2.00 inch ID is exactly what this hose carries, so the bore size lines up. The outside diameter runs 2.39 inches, which matters when you're routing through tight brackets or clamp positions. At 36 inches long, there's usually enough length to cut to fit if your run is shorter. Four-ply silicone construction with polyester reinforcement means it holds its shape under pressure and heat without collapsing, which is what you want on a working diesel.

hose says it goes up to 350 degrees, is that continuous or just a peak rating?
Answer by: Customer Support on Dec 22, 2025, 7:47 AM
Continuous operation, not just a spike tolerance. The -65°F to 350°F range covers normal ongoing use, so running it hot day in and day out falls well within what it's built for. The four-ply polyester-reinforced silicone construction holds up under sustained heat a lot better than standard rubber hose.

trying to replace a straight coolant hose, are the measurements on this one 2 inch inside and 2.39 outside for real?
Answer by: Customer Support on Apr 16, 2025, 2:23 PM
The hose is sized at 2.00 inch ID and 2.39 inch OD, and it comes in a 36 inch straight length, so it matches setups that call for those exact dimensions.
