• Core: This is the main body of the radiator, consisting of thin metal fins and tubes. The coolant flows through the tubes, and the fins help to transfer heat to the surrounding air.
• Tanks: These are located at the top and bottom of the radiator. The upper tank (inlet tank) receives hot coolant from the engine, while the lower tank (outlet tank) sends cooled coolant back to the engine.
• Hoses: These connect the radiator to the engine, allowing coolant to flow between the two.
• Pressure cap: This seals the radiator and maintains pressure within the cooling system. It also has a valve that releases excess pressure.

Other important components of the cooling system that work in conjunction with the radiator include:

• Water pump: Circulates coolant throughout the system.
• Thermostat: Regulates the flow of coolant to maintain optimal engine temperature.
• Cooling fan: Helps to draw air through the radiator to enhance cooling.
