i wonder why they dont thread the pipe.. would be easier. or supply a small tap / dye set so you can thread them your self.

p.s

some sand in the pipe is just as effective and a lot less time consuming than frozen soapy water. also sand wont expand when freezing so is unlikely to split the pipe

How on earth do you plan on screwing in both ends if the pipe is threaded?

left hand thread on one end and right hand on the other. With connectors that are the same. but you would need to thread your own pipes. the more i think about it the less it seems like the easier option. still id like to see it as an option.
 
Rigid Tubing has became the latest water cooling craze, but now Alphacool's new HardTube series adds metal tubing into the mix as well as the clear tubing we are used too!

Oh shhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeat.......... now I wanna sling some chrome pipes in my machine!

This is too much for someone who has a soft spot for vintage cars! :eek:
 
You use a simple pipe bender and copper pipe cutter for the metal tube - there will be a cutting kit available shortly.

And yes metal tubes will keep the coolant slightly cooler but not by a massive amount.

Like these ones! That literally were sitting right next to me haha!


How much longer do you expect till the fittings will be up on your site? Im quite keen. If the price is right ill but some straight away.

Don't you're considering doing an introductory offer for OC3D members haha?
 
Can someone point me in the right direction of a good quality pipe bender and cutting tool i don't want the pipe to collapse or get damaged during the bending process
