You’re looking at a 45 degree silicone elbow hose with a 2.50 inch inner diameter, and it has 6 inch legs for the connection runs.

Will this hose hold up ok in an engine compartment?

Designed for demanding industrial environments, this silicone hose can certainly handle the temperatures you'd find under the hood. Silicone is known for its excellent resistance to extreme temperatures, making it suitable for both hot and cold fluid systems.

Got a cooling line on a piece of equipment that runs at a pretty sharp angle off the pump housing, would a 45-degree elbow like this one work better than trying to force a straight hose into that kind of bend?
Question by: Shane P on Apr 28, 2025, 6:04 AM
A 45-degree elbow is exactly the right move when a straight hose would have to fight the routing. Forcing a straight section into a tight angular run puts stress on the fittings and can cause the hose to kink over time. With a 2.50-inch inner diameter and a 6-inch leg, this one gives you enough straight section on each end to make clean, secure connections without a lot of struggle at the joint.
