  • 7 mm wall thickness adds strength without excess weight
  • 500 mm length covers most reservoir-to-block runs
  • RoHS compliant materials meet environmental safety standards

Black Sparkle hard tubing for custom loops

Bitspower supplies 500 mm straight lengths of brass tubing with a black sparkle finish for open-loop liquid cooling. The 16 mm outer diameter matches the brand’s OD16 mm hard-fitting series. Each piece arrives uncut and without a chamfer so the builder can trim and deburr to the exact run required. RoHS compliance confirms the material meets restricted-substance limits.

Consistent flow under sustained load

Brass construction and a 0.7 mm wall thickness give the tube rigid shape retention when coolant circulates continuously. The double-thickness design resists deformation from pump pressure and thermal expansion during long sessions. Because the inner bore stays circular, flow restriction remains predictable from the first hour to the hundredth. No plasticiser leaching occurs, so coolant clarity is preserved over time.

Brass build quality and fitting implications

The hard tubing must be cut with the specified Bitspower metal tubing cutter to avoid cracking the coloured layer. After cutting, the builder must chamfer each end before inserting it into a compression fitting. The 16 mm OD ensures a secure seal with matching Bitspower fittings, but the rigid tube cannot absorb vibration, so mounting points should be planned to prevent stress on blocks or radiators. Bend radius is not supplied, so complex routes need careful layout.

Questions about this item

Does the 16 mm brass tubing radiate noticeable heat into the case during an all-day loop run?

Brass conducts heat well, but the 0.7 mm wall is thin and the coolant temperature stays close to ambient, so the tube surface adds very little heat to the case interior.

Which fittings are required to connect the OD 16 mm tube?

Use Bitspower OD 16 mm hard-tube compression fittings; the tubing is cut to length and pre-chamfered, so only the correct size fitting and a metal tubing cutter are needed.

Can the 500 mm black-sparkle tube sit next to older nickel-plated blocks without corrosion risk?

The brass tube is RoHS compliant and pairs safely with standard nickel or copper water blocks in the same loop when proper coolant and biocide are used.
