Details
Alphacool Apex Liquid Blue is a ready-mixed blue coolant for PC water cooling, in a 1000 ml bottle. It is used directly from the bottle and is not diluted. Alphacool rates it as more suitable for show cases than for gaming or work PCs, because a colored coolant means the loop must be cleaned more frequently.

What it is for
With the Apex Liquid, Alphacool says it fulfills the wishes of many modders and water cooling enthusiasts. The blue coolant creates great effects in Plexi coolers, hoses (tubes) and expansion tanks. Alphacool's line on what is in it: "with this product we completely do without dangerous and aggressive ingredients". As a result, it calls the liquid ecologically harmless and says it can be safely disposed of if necessary. In Alphacool's words, you treat your water cooling system to a visual highlight with the best cooling performance.
Application
The liquid is ready-mixed, so it goes into the loop as it comes.
Characteristics
The additives contained effectively protect the water circuit against corrosion, lime and other contamination. The mix minimizes the surface tension of the liquid as well, which means that bubbles in the circuit can be dissolved more easily. An additional positive side effect is that the pump is lubricated, and Alphacool says its service life is thus significantly extended. The technical specifications are the four lines under Properties.
No restrictions
The coolant is suitable for all materials that are usually integrated into the water circuit of such a system. This includes substances such as copper, brass, nickel, chrome plating, aluminum, POM, PPS-GF40, PETG, acrylic, PVC and EPDM/PP.
Notes
- Do not add other biocides or anti-corrosion fluids, and do not dilute it with distilled water. Alphacool says the basic and coordinated properties of the fluid will otherwise be lost.
- The dyes it contains can clog the circuit after a long period of use and impair cooling performance.
- Note on application: due to the intensity of the color, clothing or other materials that come into contact with the coolant may become discolored. Alphacool advises proceeding carefully when filling.
Alphacool also makes this blue as a UV-active version.
