Description
The Mishimoto Silicone Radiator Hose Kit (MMHOSE-F50-18BK) is a direct-fit, black silicone upper and lower hose set engineered specifically for the 2018-2024 Ford F-150 5.0L V8. Built to replace the factory rubber hoses before they age, crack, and leak, this kit pairs five-layer silicone construction with a factory-style quick disconnect already installed on the lower hose, plus a stainless steel connector in place of the original leak-prone plastic fitting.
Cooling system hoses take a constant beating from heat and pressure, and rubber only degrades with time. Mishimoto’s silicone radiator hose kit is built from five layers of silicone embedded with heat-resistant fibers, giving the hoses a maximum temperature rating of 330°F so they can handle the demands of daily driving and towing without the risk of a sudden coolant leak. Swapping the OEM plastic lower connector for a stainless steel piece further improves resistance to heat and pressure, helping keep the cooling system sealed and reliable for the long haul. As a Performance-grade, vehicle-specific kit, it’s designed to bolt in without modification, and it’s backed by Mishimoto’s Lifetime Warranty for lasting peace of mind.
