Audi VW Engine Coolant Hose Flange - URO Parts 018467

Product Information

An engine coolant hose flange is a fitting or connection point where the coolant hoses attach to the engine or other components in the cooling system. This flange is typically made of metal or plastic and is designed to create a secure seal to prevent coolant leaks. It plays a critical role in maintaining the proper flow of coolant throughout the engine, radiator, and heater core, helping to regulate the engine's temperature.

• Coolant Leaks: One of the most noticeable symptoms of a failing coolant hose flange is visible coolant leaks. If the flange or the connection point becomes damaged, coolant may leak onto the ground or other engine components
• Overheating Engine: A compromised flange can disrupt the flow of coolant, leading to insufficient cooling. This can cause the engine to overheat, triggering the temperature warning light on the dashboard

About URO Premium

Manufactured by California-based A.P.A. Industries LLC, the URO Premium line specializes in problem-solving parts for European vehicles, which are superior to common failure-prone OEM parts thanks to improved designs and/or upgraded materials. Frustrated by original parts that are failure-prone due to design flaws or material deficiencies, professional mechanics often contact A.P.A. in search of repair solutions. Innovative URO Premium components are the result, which help eliminate these failures thanks to improved designs and/or use of more robust materials, such as replacing plastic with aluminum or brass, or upgrading inadequate rubber seals to high-performance Viton fluoroelastomer. The A.P.A. headquarters is equipped with an impressive mechanical and electrical testing laboratory, which is used to validate URO Premium products prior-to and post-production. Every URO design undergoes comprehensive laboratory testing of metal, rubber, and plastic compounds for tensile strength, shear strength, compression strength, and elasticity order to ensure each part meets or exceeds OE standards for the fitment, function, and durability. These components are then manufactured in ISO/IATF 16949 QMS certified facilities to ensure they are consistent with the highest levels of quality in the Automotive Aftermarket, making URO Premium parts ideal for both professional and DIY vehicle repair.
