The Alphacool Eiszapfen PRO HardTube G1/4" Fitting is designed for use in water cooling systems, providing a secure and stable connection for hard tubes made of PETG, acrylic, brass, or glass. These fittings are part of a 6-pack and are ideal for users looking to build or upgrade their custom cooling loops. The design focuses on preventing deformation of tubes at high temperatures, which is a common issue in water cooling setups. This makes the fitting particularly useful for enthusiasts and professionals who require reliable performance under various operating conditions.
The fitting uses a combination of nylon inserts and a compression seal to ensure the tube remains firmly in place. This design prevents slippage even under heavy loads, with Alphacool testing showing the fittings can withstand tensile strength of over 8kg. The larger contact area compared to standard O-rings enhances grip and stability. The brass construction ensures durability and resistance to corrosion, making it suitable for long-term use in water cooling environments.
Each fitting has a G1/4" thread and is compatible with 16mm outer diameter hard tubes. The overall diameter of the fitting is 26mm, with a height of 23mm, making it compact yet robust. The deep black finish provides a sleek aesthetic that matches most water cooling components. The fittings are designed to work with clear transparent water cooling fluids only, as the additives in other fluids like Pastel can cause clogging and damage to the system.
The package includes six fittings, allowing users to install multiple connections without needing to purchase additional units separately. Installation is straightforward, requiring only a compatible tube and a G1/4" threaded component. Users should be cautious when selecting fluids to avoid warranty issues or potential damage to their cooling system. These fittings are best suited for those who prioritize reliability and performance in their water cooling setups.
