Mishimoto Radiator Flexible Hose Kit 48in Blue Universal

The Mishimoto Radiator Flexible Hose Kit 48in Blue Universal replaces stock rubber radiator hoses with a stainless-steel flexible hose to provide a durable, corrosion-resistant radiator connection that improves long-term reliability.

This kit addresses common shortcomings of rubber and pieced-together hose assemblies: rubber hoses and multiple hose joins can add leak points and deteriorate over time, and many silicone replacements only mirror stock configurations rather than improving function. Mishimoto’s stainless-steel flexible solution offers a direct, purpose-built alternative.

• Stainless-steel flexible construction — Provides a durable, abrasion- and corrosion-resistant hose body that maintains structural integrity under repeated thermal and vibrational cycles.
• 48 in length — Allows routing versatility for custom installations and universal applications where extended reach or alternate paths are required.
• Universal fit (blue finish) — Serves as a versatile upgrade for non-specific applications while offering a visible, finished appearance compared to improvised rubber or clamped assemblies.
• Mishimoto engineering — Designed and supplied by Mishimoto, leveraging their motorsports-focused development to produce a functional, race-conditioned replacement option.

Key benefits:

• Reduced maintenance complexity — A single flexible stainless-steel hose reduces the need for multiple hose connections and associated leak points common with pieced-together rubber assemblies.
• Improved longevity — Stainless-steel construction resists common failure modes for rubber hoses without relying on silicone-only stock-style replacements.
• Professional appearance — The blue finished hose offers a clean, purposeful look compared with ad hoc rubber hose work.

Usage notes:

• Application — Intended as a universal flexible radiator hose replacement or upgrade where a 48 in length and stainless-steel flex are appropriate.
• Installation — Should be installed using appropriate clamps and fittings compatible with the vehicle’s radiator and coolant system connections.
