The Multiquip 48779 Lower Radiator Hose is a genuine OEM component designed for the MD82 hydraulic ride-on power trowel. Sourced directly from Multiquip, this hose is manufactured to the exact material grade, diameter, and routing profile required for correct installation on MD82 series machines. As a genuine OEM part, it meets the same standards as the original component fitted at the factory, so you get a direct, correct-fit replacement every time. If you are servicing an MD82 and need to restore the cooling circuit to proper working order, part number 48779 is the correct specification hose for the job.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Coolant Containment — Manufactured to the exact hose material and wall-thickness spec required to handle the MD82 engine's coolant pressure and temperature range without swelling or cracking.
- Correct Routing Profile — Pre-formed to the original bend geometry, so the hose seats cleanly between the lower radiator outlet and the engine inlet without forcing or improvising.
- Confirmed MD82 Fitment — Verified for Multiquip MD82 hydraulic ride-on power trowels; cross-reference part number 48779 against your serial plate before ordering.
- Cooling System Integrity — A properly seated lower radiator hose maintains consistent coolant flow to the engine, protecting against overheating during extended finishing runs on large slabs.
- Genuine Multiquip OEM Part — Supplied as original equipment, not a substitute, so the hose clamp seats, end fitments, and overall length match the OEM assembly exactly.
The lower radiator hose carries coolant from the bottom of the radiator back to the engine's water pump inlet, completing the continuous loop that pulls heat away from the engine. On a hydraulic ride-on trowel like the MD82, the engine works hard under sustained load, making a sound cooling circuit essential to keeping operating temperatures in range. When this hose ages, it can soften, collapse internally, or develop leaks at the clamp seats — any of which will cause coolant loss, rising engine temperature, and a forced shutdown on the finishing deck.
