FAQs

What type of tubing is this adapter compatible with?

This adapter is designed to be compatible with hardline, compression, and barbed fittings, allowing flexibility in your tubing choices.

What is the thread size for this fitting?

The connecting thread size for this fitting is the standard 1/4", ensuring broad compatibility with most custom cooling components.

What material is the adapter made from?

The adapter is constructed from high-quality brass for durability and reliability.

Does this fitting come with O-rings?

Standard G1/4" fittings typically come with integrated or separate O-rings to ensure a seal. Please refer to the product packaging for exact contents.

Can I use this with any type of PC coolant?

Yes, it is designed to work with standard PC liquid cooling agents. Always follow the coolant manufacturer's guidelines for use and maintenance.

What does 'Rotary' mean in the product name?

Rotary fittings allow for rotation at the base connection point, enabling easier alignment and adjustment of tubing runs without twisting the entire fitting or component it's attached to.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust and smudges. For tougher marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Fitting is leaking.

Ensure the connecting threads are properly seated and hand-tightened. Check O-rings for damage or debris. If using compression fittings, ensure the tubing is correctly inserted and the compression collar is adequately tightened.

Difficulty connecting tubing.

Verify that you are using the correct type of fitting (hardline, compression, barbed) for your tubing. Ensure hardline tubing is cut cleanly and deburred. For compression fittings, make sure the tubing is fully seated before tightening the collar.

Rotary function is stiff or stuck.

Ensure no debris is obstructing the rotation. Do not force the rotation; attempt to gently adjust its position. Over-tightening the fitting onto the base component can sometimes restrict rotation.

Chrome finish appears dull or discolored.

Clean the fitting with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. If discoloration persists, it may indicate a reaction with the coolant or environmental factors; inspect the entire loop for compatibility issues.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the connecting threads on the adapter and your existing components are clean. Screw the adapter onto the desired component port (e.g., radiator, pump, water block) ensuring a snug fit. If using with soft tubing and barbed fittings, attach the tubing securely to the adapter's barb and use clamps if necessary. For hardline tubing, ensure your cut is clean and the tube is properly seated within the compression fitting attached to the adapter. For the rotary fittings, gently rotate to the desired position before fully tightening.

Compatibility: This fitting features standard 1/4" threads, making it compatible with the vast majority of custom PC liquid cooling components from various manufacturers, including radiators, pumps, reservoirs, and water blocks. It is designed to work with hardline, compression, and barbed fittings. Always verify the outer diameter of your tubing matches the requirements of the compression or barbed fitting you are using.

Care: To maintain optimal performance and appearance, regularly inspect fittings for any signs of leaks or corrosion. Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the finish. Periodically flush your entire cooling loop according to your coolant manufacturer's recommendations to prevent debris buildup.
