Automobile Coolant Reservoir Radiator Cap 3M5H8100AD
Product Description
Most cooling
systems from the 1950s onward are pressurized. As they heat up, the coolant and
air above it in the radiator expands. The pressure builds up and suppresses the
boiling of the coolant. Water can be taken to about 107°C at 4PSI above
atmospheric pressure and to 121°C at 15PSI above.
The cap
regulates the maximum pressure, preventing damage to the hoses and radiator.
After turning the engine off, the system cools and the coolant contracts
significantly. The cap therefore has a return valve that admits air from the
atmosphere or coolant from an expansion tank, if fitted.
