Hand-made in the UK from Kevlar-reinforced rubber. This Austin Healey top radiator hose is formed with the correct angle to help the hose sit naturally without unnecessary tension at the joints, which can otherwise contribute to restricted coolant flow on poorly shaped alternatives.
Fits: Austin Healey BN4, BN6, BN7, BT7, BJ7 and BJ8.
Excludes: BN1 and BN2 top hose applications. Not suitable for non-standard cooling conversions that change hose routing or connection sizes.
Choose the clamp style that suits the engine bay and service preference:
Pin & strip clips are typically chosen for earlier BN1-BN6 period presentation. If used, confirm clamp sizing and suitability for the joint.
It is made from Kevlar-reinforced rubber to better cope with temperature cycling than standard hoses, and it is formed to the correct angle to reduce tension at the joints.
Yes. A hose that sits under tension can be harder to seal and may not sit cleanly on the spigots. This hose is shaped to help it sit naturally on the standard BN4-BJ8 layout.
Jubilee clips offer the widest adjustment range. O.E. double wire clips are often chosen for a more original appearance, provided sizing is correct.
Yes. Recheck clip tension after the first full heat cycle and again after a short settling-in period.
