EKWB EK-Quantum Torque Compression Fittings - 10/13mm Soft Tube, Black 4-Pack

About This Product

Building a custom water cooling loop? These EKWB Quantum Torque fittings are seriously nice quality and make your build look super clean. They're designed for 10/13mm soft tubing - that's 3/8 inch inner diameter and 1/2 inch outer diameter if you're more familiar with imperial measurements. The black satin finish looks really professional and matches well with pretty much any color scheme or component. What's cool about these fittings is they have this minimalistic design with no visible branding - just clean lines that let your build shine. The compression ring works really well - it grips the tubing securely without damaging it, so you don't have to worry about leaks or tubes popping out under pressure. They're made from CNC-machined brass with quality O-rings, so the build quality is definitely there. Installation is pretty straightforward, but here's a pro tip - use a 9mm Allen key to tighten them instead of trying to do it by hand. The fitting has a hex socket inside specifically for this, and it'll save your fingers from getting sore. These work with various types of soft tubing - PVC, EPDM, Norprene, silicone, you name it. Another nice feature is you can add colored aesthetic rings to them (sold separately) if you want to add a pop of color to your loop. The threads are G1/4 inch BSPP, which is standard for water cooling components. Each fitting has an outer diameter of 20mm and stands about 19mm tall when installed. Since you get four in the pack, it's perfect for a basic CPU loop or you can buy multiple packs for more complex setups. EKWB is known for making quality water cooling gear, and these fittings definitely live up to that reputation. They might cost a bit more than some budget brands, but the quality and looks are worth it for a build you're proud of!
