  • The size is a mystery.
I like gates products and it appears good quality... but no where does it say what size the hose is...... I had to go to the gates website to look it up. (its 5/8")

  • Gates 28491 Pollybag gives you 6 feet!
Or 72 inches, however you want to look at it. I was trying to find out and found answers from 5 to 25 feet. Luckily a customer had the good sense to put up pictures of the label showing the length and its origin. If you're still not sure, don't expect to buy 5/8 Gates, Made in USA, heater hose for $0.35 per foot in the twenty first century. The product description needs work. It shows the dimensions of the bag itself and the origin as "China". This is Gates hose made in USA. Its not the heavy duty green stripe, but works just fine for heater hose in normal applications. ... show more

  • It's a must have.
This item is a must have, when replacing the EVAP valve solenoid. The original hoses are heat shrunk plastic. Spend the extra money and buy the hose. It's long enough for the valve, plus relocating the vent. They recommend placing it up by the bell housing, on my 05 Sierra, I put it up behind the fuel filler door. ... show more

  • Good stuff
I used this to length a PCV line for an aftermarket AEM intake. The included section was stiff and too short. This stuff works perfect and has just enough flex to fit on but stay secure. If it can handle coolant I'm sure it can handle PCV vapor, and if not, I got a ton more of it.

  • Gates hose but seems a little too soft.
I bought this hose due to the brand... came in packaged with Made in Mexico stamped on it... not the Mexico is a bad thing but the hose appears to be under constructed... note, Im not a hose engineer but the hose I buy at the auto supply seems a lot more robust vs. this hose... Just my opinion.

  • Best way to replace your old heater hoses.
Great way to replace original molded heater hoses on my 2001 Cherokee. Good quality brand name. Far cheaper than buying a pre-molded hose at my local auto parts store. If a special molded hose is not mandatory, this is the way to go.

  • Excellent heater hose. Only six feet long.
Excellent heater hose. Made in USA. Feels much better and stronger than the generic hose I bought locally. My only complaint is that it comes in six foot lengths only. That's why I docked it a star. I wish they sold it in ten foot lengths. My application needed about 7 feet so I was forced to get more hose locally to finish the job. ... show more
