Product Description

The Cooltec Water Flange Upper Radiator is an essential component in your vehicle's cooling system, designed to securely connect the radiator hose and help route coolant efficiently. This part is commonly found in Audi, Seat, and Volkswagen models, where it forms a critical junction between the radiator and engine. Its robust plastic construction and integrated locking tabs ensure a tight, leak-resistant fit, helping to maintain optimal coolant flow.

This water flange is compatible with selected Audi, Seat, and Volkswagen vehicles. However, fitment can vary by model, year, engine size, and engine code, so it is important to confirm these details before purchasing.
