Product Description

The Cooltec Water Flange Clip is designed for use in cooling systems to securely fasten water flanges in place. This clip helps maintain a reliable seal between the water flange and the corresponding pipe or housing, preventing coolant leaks and ensuring optimal cooling system performance. The product features a robust U-shaped metal design, available in different finishes for universal application.

Fitment for this clip is described as universal for VW and Audi models with a 28.5mm water flange, but as specific vehicle compatibility is not fully detailed, it is essential to double-check your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering. The clip is suitable for various cooling water flange setups that require a 28.5mm retaining clip.

Symptoms of a failing or missing water flange clip include coolant leaks at the flange joint, loose or misaligned water flanges, fluctuating engine temperature, low coolant warnings, visible coolant residue around the flange, and overheating issues. If you notice any of these symptoms, inspect the clip and surrounding components for wear or damage.

Replacing the water flange clip is recommended if it shows signs of corrosion, distortion, or loss of tension, or whenever the water flange is removed for maintenance. Using a worn or incorrect clip can compromise the seal and lead to leaks or cooling system failure.
