Tubing for Custom Water-Cooling Loops

This PVC tubing connects pumps, radiators, blocks and reservoirs in a custom liquid-cooling loop. The 10 mm inner diameter and 13 mm outer diameter fit standard G1/4 fittings. A 65–70 A-Shore hardness keeps the tube flexible for routing yet stiff enough to resist kinking on tight bends. One metre length suits most single-loop builds.

Replaces Worn or Mismatched Tubing

Swap out aged, discoloured or incorrectly sized hose when rebuilding or expanding a loop. The upgrade is worth it when the old tubing has lost plasticiser, shows clouding or cannot meet the 2 bar working pressure and 8 bar burst rating. UV White colour also changes the loop aesthetic without new components.

Handles Standard Loop Pressures and Temperatures

Rated for continuous use between –10 °C and 80 °C at up to 2 bar working pressure with an 8 bar burst margin. Comfortably feeds typical single-pump configurations and common radiator counts. Runs out of headroom in multi-pump serial setups or extreme sub-ambient chillers that exceed the temperature or pressure envelope.

Questions about this item

What fitting sizes match the 10 mm inner and 13 mm outer diameter of this tubing?

Use compression fittings rated for 10 mm ID and 13 mm OD, or 3/8 inch ID and 1/2 inch OD barbs with matching clamps.

How do I install the tubing without kinking it during tight bends?

Warm the PVC gently with warm water, push it fully onto the fitting until it seats against the collar, and avoid bending sharper than the tubing's natural curve.

When should I plan to replace this tubing in a loop running near the 80 °C limit?

Inspect every six to twelve months; replace if the material yellows, stiffens beyond the 65-70 A-Shore range, or shows micro-cracks near fittings.
