Fitting Specifications

The Alphacool Eiszapfen 1013356 is a 45° compression fitting designed for 16mm outer diameter hard tubing. It accepts acrylic, brass, borosilicate glass or carbon tubes in custom liquid-cooling loops. A knurled collar allows tool-free tightening and the Deep Black finish resists fading.

Loop Build Suitability

This part suits builders assembling a custom water-cooling loop who need a 45-degree directional change with 16mm hard tube. It is not for anyone using soft tubing, smaller or larger tube diameters, or push-to-connect fittings.

Deciding Specification

The defining parameter is the 16mm hard-tube compression interface combined with a 45° angle. Only loops built around 16mm OD rigid tubing can use this fitting; any other tube size or fitting type will not seal correctly.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 16mm 45° compression fitting on hard tubing without leaks?

Cut the tube square, deburr the inside edge, slide the collar then the compression ring onto the tube, push the tube fully into the fitting body until it seats, and tighten the collar by hand plus a quarter turn with a wrench; the step most people miss is not pushing the tube all the way to the internal stop before tightening.

What maintenance or replacement will the Deep Black finish on the 1013356 fitting need later?

The new application process prevents fading or peeling, so the finish requires no recoating; only inspect the O-rings during routine loop maintenance and replace them if they show cracking or compression set.

What limit appears first on the 16mm 45° L-connector under sustained use?

The 45° bend radius restricts flow more than a straight fitting, so pressure drop across the elbow becomes the limiting factor before the compression seal or finish degrades.
