- Constructed from high-temp, multi-ply black silicone for superior heat resistance and longevity.
- Reinforced with high-quality polyester to withstand high pressure and reduce the risk of hose failure.
- Designed with precise bends and curves for a perfect fit, making installation easier than universal hoses.
- Resistant to cracking, splitting, and degradation common in OEM rubber hoses over time.
- Maintains efficient coolant flow to help prevent engine overheating and maintain optimal operating temperatures.
- Suitable for both daily driving and competitive racing applications.
- Black finish provides a clean, professional look under the hood.
- Compatible specifically with the Scion iQ 1.3L 4-cylinder models from 2008 through 2014.
Construction & Design:
This hose kit features a 3-ply reinforced silicone construction, combining premium-grade silicone with polyester reinforcement layers. This multi-ply design enhances durability and flexibility while allowing the hoses to endure extreme heat and pressure conditions typical of modern engines. Unlike standard EPDM rubber hoses, the silicone material resists hardening and cracking, extending the service life of your cooling system components.
The hoses are engineered with exact OEM-style bends and lengths to ensure a seamless fit without modification. This precision fitment reduces installation time and eliminates the need for cutting or splicing, providing a hassle-free upgrade experience.
Installation & Fitment:
The HPS Silicone Radiator and Heater Hose Kit is designed as a direct OEM replacement for the Scion iQ 1.3L 4-cylinder models from 2008 to 2014. Installation is straightforward, utilizing existing mounting points and connections without requiring any cutting, drilling, or special tuning.
- Direct bolt-on replacement for factory radiator and heater hoses.
- No modifications necessary—fits perfectly with stock clamps and fittings.
- Recommended for routine cooling system maintenance or performance upgrades.
What's Included:
- Complete set of radiator and heater hoses made from reinforced silicone.
- All hoses pre-formed with OEM-style bends for exact fitment.
