Alphacool 1/4 inch (13/10 mm) zwart vernikkelde aansluiting 62116

Alphacool 1/4" (13/10 mm) black nickel-plated fitting 62116 is a metal connector designed for liquid cooling loops that use 13 mm outer and 10 mm inner tubing. The fitting has a black nickel-plated finish that provides corrosion resistance and a professional appearance while ensuring a reliable fluid connection between components such as radiators, pumps and reservoirs in custom PC water-cooling systems.

Advantages

The black nickel plating increases surface durability and reduces the risk of corrosion in mixed-metal cooling loops. The metal construction provides mechanical strength and a stable seal under typical system pressures. The fitting supports either push-fit or compression-style connections for 13/10 mm tubing, enabling quick installation and secure hose retention. Its compact design is suitable for tight installation spaces within PC cases and water-cooling assemblies.

Suitable for

• Custom PC water-cooling loops
• Connections between radiators, pumps and reservoirs
• Replacement or upgrade of existing tubing fittings
• Systems using 13 mm outer / 10 mm inner soft tubing

Key specifications

• Material: metal with black nickel plating
• Outer tubing diameter compatibility: 13 mm
• Inner tubing diameter compatibility: 10 mm
• Connection type: push-fit / compression-style
• Finish: black nickel (corrosion-resistant surface)

How to use

Ensure tubing and component ports are clean and free of debris before installation. Measure and cut the tubing squarely to ensure a tight fit. Insert the 10 mm inner diameter tubing fully onto the fitting until it seats firmly; if using a compression variant, tighten any associated compression ring according to manufacturer guidance to secure the hose. After assembly, inspect each joint for proper seating and test the loop at low pressure to verify there are no leaks before normal operation.

Recommendations

Use compatible soft tubing with 13 mm outer and 10 mm inner diameters. Avoid mixing incompatible metals without appropriate corrosion inhibitors in the coolant. Periodically inspect fittings and hose connections for signs of wear or leakage, and recheck tightness after initial operation.
