Where it is used
Alphacool's page calls this shape an S-adapter. It is used to reach difficult to access areas, so it goes in the hard-to-reach places of a loop.
The Eiszapfen series
Alphacool says its Eiszapfen (Icicle) connector series is the high-end version of the proven connections. In its words, all requirements that are placed on a connection are fulfilled here: High Flow, form, processing and coloring. Alphacool credits intransigence in development and production, which it says have helped make the icicles what they are. Two versions are available, brilliant chrome and a matte, deep black, and Alphacool says both fit perfectly into any system.
Coating and O-rings
With a special process the coatings are firmly connected to the substrate, hence ensuring permanent, intense colors, and Alphacool says peeling of the coating is inhibited. Each port now has the Alphacool logo, making it unique in addition to its special shape. Those who like it colorful get three different colored O-rings included for the fitting. Where there is existing UV lighting, Alphacool says these O-rings even glow in the appropriate color under those lights.
What the loop needs
The external thread screws into a G1/4 port, and the internal thread takes any G1/4 fitting from our fittings section. The adapter holds no tube on its own.
Notes
