Aging or damage of coolant pipes often occurs after use for 5-8 years or 80,000 to 10,0000 kilometers of mileage. Due to long-term exposure to high temperature and high pressure, their material gradually age. The following methods can be used to determine whether a coolant pipe needs to be replaced.

How to determine if a coolant pipe needs to be replaced?

Check the surface of the coolant pipe for any signs of cracking, hardening, expansion, discoloration, peeling, or obvious wear.

If there are oil stains or sticky or black spots on the surface of the coolant pipe, its internal material may have aged or degraded.

Check for signs of leakage, loose clamp, or cracking or aging of sealing ring at the joint.

Check if the pipe wall exhibits significant thinning, twisting, expansion or bulging.

If the vehicle experiences an inexplicable decrease in coolant or abnormal engine temperature, the cooling pipe should be inspected for any sign of leakage.

vika coolant pipes are replaced in full sets to avoid frequent changes of different pipes at adjacent locations.

Pipe body: Arlanxeo EPDM rubber is used, which features excellent flexibility and temperature resistance.

Joint: It is made of BASF PA66-GF30 material, and is resistant to high pressure, high temperature, and chemical corrosion.

Reinforced layer: It is made of aramid cord material imported from South Korea, with extremely high tear resistance.

Product testing: Finished product are tested with inspection tools and subject to 100% airtightness testing.
