GATES 28604 cooling system components for the 2005-2018 Toyota Tacoma 2.7L and other vehicles: a straight plastic hose connector that joins one heater hose to the next.

  • Unique single barb design for greater sealability between single or dual inside diameter hoses
  • Glass reinforced nylon resists chemicals, gasoline, diesel fuels and temperatures from -40°F to 480°F (-40°C to 250°C)
  • Bulkheads assure proper insertion depths
  • Anti-rotation device prevents hose twisting

Coolant seeping or crusty residue at the joint, a cracked connector body or a hose that has worked loose can mean the connector needs replacing. With the engine off and cool, look over the connector and both hose ends first, since a worn hose or clamp can leak in the same way. The run takes a single connector, at the joint between hose 1 and hose 2.

It also fits the 2000-2003 Ford Focus 2.0L and the 2011-2018 Toyota Hilux 2.7L.
