Belts
Motorcraft® belts are manufactured of premium-quality
materials and polyester cords.
- Polyester cords resist stretching, minimize slippage
and provide excellent performance with short adjustment
(limited take-up) drives
- Laminated die-cut edge design provides quiet,
efficient operation
- Resist deterioration caused by grease, oil, dirt
and high temperature
V-Ribbed Belts
A single belt may drive numerous engine accessories
- alternator, water pump, cooling fan, air conditioning
compressor and power steering pump. Advantages of
V-Ribbed belts over conventional belts include:
- V-Ribbed belts require less energy to bend around
the pulleys
- More efficient transfer of horsepower from the
belt to the accessory
V-Ribbed belts may also be used in conjunction with
standard belts to drive individual accessories on
the same engine.
Cog Belts
Motorcraft® molded-cog belts flex easily around the
smallest pulley. The molded-cog design helps preserve
belt strength and eliminates rough edges present on
cut-cog design belts.

Hoses
Molded Curved Radiator
Hose
Pre-shaped molded hose promotes easy installation.
EPDM (ethylene-propylene diolefin monomer) rubber
over braid construction increases hose life by resisting
swelling, cracking and splitting.
- Flexible Radiator Hose
- Steel-wire reinforced to resist kinking and collapsing
- Permanently shaped after relatively few hours
of use
- Flexible hose EPDM rubber, reinforced by steel
coil insert, exceeds SAE standards for hydrostatic
burst strength and helps maintain full section diameter
for unrestricted coolant flow
- EPDM rubber material resists oil, grease, antifreeze
and all approved coolant additives

Bulk Length Radiator Hose A
fabric-reinforced EPDM rubber coolant hose as a connection
between the radiator and the block and other components
in the engine cooling system. This hose:
- Provides high burst strength and resistance to
breaks and buckling at connections, which can be
caused by vibration and engine movement
- Maintains full flow of coolant for engine protection

Distributor Vacuum Hose
- Top-quality hypalon synthetic rubber (some models
are nylon designed) to meet high under-hood temperatures
and provide excellent resistance to collapsing
- Broad coverage for engine vacuum lines

Power Brake Hose
Constructed of high-strength, heavy-duty fabric inner
liner reinforced with helical-wound spring-steel wire
and covered by a rubberized square-woven fabric overlapped
and securely cemented
- Provides collapse resistance at maximum brake
system vacuum
- Meets or exceeds state and federal requirements,
including the Pennsylvania Statute

Positive Crankcase Ventilation
Hose
Constructed of high-temperature, oil-resistant synthetic
rubber tubing, reinforced with a fabric-braid, heat-
and ozone-resistant chloroprene cover
- The synthetic rubber tubing is specially compounded
to resist the damaging effects of gasoline or diesel
fuel crankcase emission gases
