The Wacker Neuson Radiator Top Hose G160 is a genuine OEM component designed for the G-series portable generator lineup, including the G100, G120, G125, G150, and G180 mobile generators. As a factory-sourced part, is manufactured to the exact dimensions and material specifications of the original hose, ensuring a proper seal and correct coolant flow through the engine cooling circuit. This hose fits across a wide range of G-series configurations including standard, cold weather, skid-mounted, and custom variants. Keeping an accurate part number like on hand is the fastest way to restore your generator to full operating condition.
Key Features
- OEM Hose Material and Wall Thickness — Built to the original pressure and temperature ratings for the G-series cooling system, ensuring the hose holds its shape and seal under continuous engine load.
- Correct Upper-Circuit Routing — The top hose connects the engine outlet to the radiator inlet; this OEM profile matches the original routing geometry for a clean, clamp-ready installation.
- Broad G-Series Compatibility — Fits G70, G100, G120, G125, G150, and G180 mobile generators across standard, cold weather, skid-mounted, and custom configurations.
- Protects Engine from Overheating — A degraded or collapsed top hose restricts coolant circulation, leading to elevated operating temperatures and potential engine damage; replacing it promptly maintains stable thermal management.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part 5000156241 carries the same quality assurance as the hose fitted at the factory.
The radiator top hose is the primary coolant pathway between the engine's thermostat outlet and the top tank of the radiator. As the engine reaches operating temperature, coolant is pushed through this hose into the radiator, where heat is dissipated before the cooled fluid is returned to the engine. Over time, the hose material can harden, crack, or soften and collapse under suction, restricting flow and causing the engine to run hot. On a portable generator — where consistent output depends on stable engine temperature — a compromised top hose can trigger thermal shutdowns or cause engine damage if left unaddressed.
