Gates 22354 Lower Radiator Hose

I bought this as a potential replacement for the lower radiator hose on a 1140 Case tractor as the original is no longer available. Revain doesn't list hose dimensions, but Gates' online catalog lists 1.27" diameter and 14.9" length. My application required a hose with the same configuration as this hose but with a 1-1/4" ID on the radiator end and 1-3/8" ID on the water pump end. I had to cut about 1-1/2" off the small diameter end to allow for clearance between the motor and the radiator. This end fitted the 1-1/4" heatsink fin quite nicely. The other end had an expanded diameter of about 1-1/2" and was very loose on the 1-3/8" water pump fitting. I was able to clamp the fitting tight enough that it would not leak. If the extended end was 1.27 inches I would give it 5 stars.

Pros
  • Radiator
Cons
  • No Performance
