WHAT CAUSES MODULAR HOSES TO FAIL?
As with traditional hoses, exposure to coolant and to the hot and cold cycles underneath the bonnet will cause the rubber to soften, expand and lead to hose failure
Plastic connectors become brittle and susceptible to breaking or cracking due to a.o. engine vibration
EVOLVING HOSE TECHNOLOGY Engines become more and more complicated, and so do their coolant hoses. Modern ‘modular’ hoses branch off to carry coolant to a variety of underbonnet equipment and typically come as complete assemblies with clamps and connectors mounted on them. When it’s time to change the hose, you get a complete solution from Gates. All our modular hoses come complete with the OE-exact clamps and connectors to ensure a simple leak- free installation.
Quick connectors tend to get damaged when hoses are removed for general cooling system maintenance
In addition, a lot of modular hoses have sensors, flow restrictors and directional valves inside of them that can get damaged
