AlphaTube HF 16/10mm tubing

AlphaTube HF is a clear PVC tube built for custom water-cooling loops. It connects pumps, radiators, blocks and reservoirs in a single, continuous run. The one-metre length suits compact or test builds. Enthusiasts who prefer rigid acrylic or PETG tubing will not use this flexible hose.

Critical spec: 10 mm ID and 16 mm OD

The inner diameter of 10 mm and outer diameter of 16 mm define every fitting choice. Compression or barb fittings must match these exact dimensions, otherwise the loop will leak. The data sheet also lists an alternative 13 mm OD variant, so verify the 16 mm OD before ordering.

Capacity and limits: 1 metre, 80 °C, 3 bar

One metre covers a simple CPU-to-radiator route with modest bends; longer or complex loops need additional lengths. The hose withstands continuous coolant temperatures up to 80 °C and a working pressure of 3 bar, with a burst rating of 18 bar. Beyond those thermal or pressure limits the material can deform or rupture.

Questions about this item

How does the 16 mm outer diameter work with standard 3/8" ID compression fittings in a loop?

The tubing has a 10 mm inner diameter and 16 mm outer diameter, matching common 3/8" ID compression fittings for a secure seal in custom water-cooling loops.

What pressure and temperature limits does the PVC tubing handle during operation?

Rated for a working pressure of 3 bar and burst pressure of 18 bar, with an operating range of -10 °C to 80 °C.

What clearance is needed for the 1 m length and 16 mm OD when routing inside a case?

The 1 m length of 16 mm OD PVC tubing has a 65–70 Shore A hardness, giving enough rigidity to resist kinking while remaining flexible for tight routing.
