DeltaMate Fittings are water cooling connectors designed for the individual components of a custom water cooling loop. As expected from Thermal Grizzly quality, the fittings are precisely machined from brass. Brass, as an alloy of copper and zinc, offers the advantage of being anodically compatible with other metals while being harder and more corrosion-resistant than copper. The sealing rings (O-rings) are made from highly elastic EPDM (ethylene propylene diene rubber), which is resistant to ozone and UV radiation. The robust design of the DeltaMate fittings allows for installation using an 8 mm hex key. The uniform outer diameter of all DeltaMate fittings ensures seamless integration of individual components. The DeltaMate ST16 fitting in black with a G1/4" thread is suitable for soft tubes made of flexible plastics with a 10/16 mm diameter. For a premium finish that is also easy to clean, the fittings are coated with matte black chromium. A single tapered barb in combination with a knurled compression ring that securely grips the tubing with high retention force allows for easy and secure tube installation. Single tapered barb allows straightforward installation for a wide range of flexible tubes. Knurled compression ring securely grips the tubing with high retention force. Compact overall dimensions facilitate installation in almost any watercooling loop. Consistent outer diameter with all DeltaMate fittings for completely seamless integration. Robust design allows installation with an 8mm hex key. Note: Only for hoses with 10 mm inner diameter / 16 mm outer diameter Model: TR-TG-DM-FIT-0001-2P
