As the upper radiator hose, it carries hot coolant from the engine to the radiator to be cooled before returning to the cooling system. Rubber hoses harden, crack, swell, or seep with age and heat cycling, so if a failed upper hose is the cause of your coolant loss or overheating, this replaces it. Made in Thailand.
