Application

A water cooling system consists of many different elements: pumps, radiators, cooling blocks, reservoirs and often other components. In order to build up a functional loop, these must of course be connected to each other, and the easiest way to do this is to use tubing. Here Alphacool calls its AlphaTube HF the best choice. In Alphacool's words the tubing has the "perfect flexibility" to be easily installed. The hose is flexible enough to be laid without effort, but at the same time rigid enough that it will not kink easily, even with tighter bending radii.

Optics

Alphacool's product information lists the AlphaTube HF tube in different vivid colors, clear and also UV-active, and this one is the UV red version. That range offers a large selection of colors and styles, making it easy to find the hose that best suits your taste. It is also available in different sizes: "We offer the AlphaTube HF hose in all common sizes," as Alphacool puts it.

What a run needs

Each run of tubing takes two fittings, one at each end, sized for a 10 mm inner and 16 mm outer diameter. They are in our section of compression fittings for 16/10 mm tubing.
