OE 251261285A — Coolant Flange for Hyundai / Kia

Wholesale pricing for 251261285A depends on order quantity, surface treatment and packing. Standard references are quoted ex-Guangzhou with tiered pricing from 10 pieces upward — send quantity and destination port and a quotation usually returns within one business day.

The Related OE References table above lists the alternates we see most often in trade inquiries. Cross-references work because the engineering envelope is shared across the cooling system family — always confirm dimensions and connector layout before you swap.

OEM means the part was produced for the vehicle maker's assembly line; aftermarket means it is made independently to the same engineering drawing. For a coolant flange the practical gap is usually tooling age and packaging rather than fit, provided the tolerance class matches.

For a short distance at reduced load, usually yes — but the risk compounds. A degraded coolant flange transfers stress to neighbouring components, so a small repair can grow into a full cooling system rebuild. Book the replacement once the symptom is repeatable.

Report it with the order number and packing-list line plus photographs. Because every carton is photographed before loading, we can trace the batch immediately and settle the claim against the inspection record instead of arguing from memory.

Start from the code cast or printed on the part you are removing — that is the authoritative source. If it is illegible, use the Applications table on the closest cooling system reference and narrow by build year. Send photos and we will cross-check the number for you.
