Slangverbinder Alphacool 17604 zwart 1/4 inch schroefdraad

The Alphacool 17604 Black 1/4" Thread hose connector is a compact fitting designed for use in computer liquid-cooling systems. Finished in black, the connector provides a secure 1/4" threaded connection between tubing and components. With small dimensions (approximately 22.5 mm wide, 24 mm deep and 18.5 mm high) and a lightweight construction, it is intended to integrate unobtrusively into custom cooling loops where space is limited.

Advantages

The connector offers a threaded 1/4" interface for reliable, leak-resistant attachment to compatible fittings and ports. Its compact size and low weight make it suitable for tight layouts and help reduce strain on tubing runs. The black finish provides a neutral appearance that blends with most system builds while offering corrosion-resistant properties typical for quality metal fittings.

Suitable for

• Custom PC liquid-cooling loops requiring a 1/4" threaded hose connection
• Small-form-factor builds and compact cases with limited internal space
• Replacement or upgrade of existing fittings to ensure secure connections

Key specifications

• Connection type: 1/4" threaded hose fitting
• Color: black
• Dimensions (approx.): 22.5 mm (width) × 24 mm (depth) × 18.5 mm (height)
• Weight (approx.): 37 g per piece

How to use

Install the connector by aligning the 1/4" thread with the corresponding threaded port or adapter on your cooling component and turn clockwise until hand-tight, then apply a small additional rotation with an appropriate wrench if required to ensure a secure seal. Attach the hose or tubing to the mating side according to the tubing type and clamp or secure it following the tubing manufacturers guidance. Verify all connections visually and perform a pressure or leak test before powering the system.

Recommendations

Use compatible 1/4" threaded ports and suitable tubing or adapters. When installing, avoid over-tightening to prevent thread damage; use appropriate tools and check for leaks after initial filling. Regularly inspect fittings during maintenance intervals to ensure long-term reliability.
