Description
The Mishimoto MMHOSE-FIST-14BK is a direct-fit silicone radiator hose kit built specifically for the 2014-2016 Ford Fiesta ST, replacing the factory rubber upper and lower radiator hoses with a five-layer silicone construction reinforced with heat-resistant embedded fibers. This kit ships in black and pairs the hoses with four worm-gear clamps so the whole cooling system upgrade goes in cleanly without hunting for extra hardware.
Rubber radiator hoses are prone to cracking, softening, and collapsing over time as heat cycles take their toll, and that degradation only accelerates under the stress of spirited driving. Mishimoto engineered this Cooling category hose kit with a Performance grade silicone material rated to withstand higher heat and pressure than stock rubber, so Fiesta ST owners get a hose that holds its shape and seal whether the car is on a daily commute, at an autocross event, or lapping a track day. As a specific-fit kit rather than a universal hose, it’s engineered to match the Fiesta ST’s factory routing for a straightforward bolt-in installation.
