Review on πŸ”§ Universal 48" Black Stainless Steel Radiator Flex Hose Kit with Caps: Efficient Coolant Flow & Durability by Jeff Swan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Almost what I expected

Issue 1: Many reviews complained about clamps. Of course, all the clamps fell apart when I tried to tighten them. A new minimum of Chinese quality. I expected that and replaced the cheap Chinese bells with not so cheap Chinese bells. Problem 2: Black aluminum caps are too tight for 1-3/4" tubing. I cut a slit along from where the cap fits on the heatsink to the last clip slot in the cap. This allowed the cap to fit snugly the 1-3/4" diameter radiator pipe. The slot is hidden at the bottom of the cover. Looks great and works great. I am concerned about the inner diameter of the flexible hose restricting coolant flow. If this were my product I would increase the tube diameter, increase the cap diameter to accommodate 1-3/4" and change clamp suppliers.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Modernity
