EK-Tube ZMT Matte Black 15,9/9,5mm (3m Retail)

Great tubing. Flexible yet strong. I love the matte black color. Easy to work with. Great for tight spaces. Makes bends easy. I was using primochill for all my builds, but will now use EK. I noticed that primochill is a lot more stiff, making bends difficult. I would highly recommend EK tubing. No issues whatsoever.

This hose rules. Seriously. PRO: -made of a material that will not degrade from watercooling conditions. Doesn't mind the heat, the ozone, the coolant, etc. -firm-yet-flexible. You can bend it pretty tightly, without kinking it. You'd never manage to cut it on accident. -almost zero labeling down the side of the hose. While this makes identifying it harder, it's also a lot prettier in a finished build. -Nice matte-black finish. Reminds me of the hoses used in the automotive industry. -No plasticizers, so you don't need to worry about accumulating that white-grey grossness inside your loop. CON: -Use a hose cutter for this stuff. Don't try to cut it with a knife. -Very stiff to slip over a fitting. Very stiff to compress using fittings. I suggest you use the EK-ACF fittings to match this stuff.

Best tuning on the market. Simple to work with and durable. Black goes with everything, basically.

I've used ZMT on a few builds and it's always easy to use and looks great. Cuts clean, and kinks less readily. Best of all it stays looking great for years, unlike any of the hardline stuff or other soft tube I've used.

I'm currently water-cooling my pc ATM. The tube seals and passed the pressure test, but the 3/8-5/8" fittings i ordered don't screw/ tighten easily and definitely don't screw down all the way. Though the OD is thick enough that when i tightened the fittings down, I couldn't pull the tube off with a substantial amount of force, so I felt comfortable running it in my setup.

This tube has wall thickness of 1/4". It could handle tight turn without kinks. To hand tight the compression fittings with this soft tube need some strength. I was able to install it without tool nor do I use heat gun. I suggest you pre install the one that has tight space first. In one connection, I have a situation where the tube is installed pretty tight on to compression fitting, but the tube has the tendency to twist the g1/4 thread loose once I let go. In this case, one of the option is to use hex wrench to tighten the g1/4 thread so that it bites into thread thread a bit more to resist the force of the twisted energy from the soft tube.

What can I say besides I love this stuff. Easy to bend, and yet doesn't crimp off. Looks amazing paired with so.e nice chrome. No worries about fogging or adding that white powder buildup to the loop like other tubing.

Let me explain the four star - hands down the best soft tubing I've ever used. Not sure if it's a COVID/availability issue or what, but $46 for 10 feet of tubing is a bit pricey. Considering you can buy 3M of any other tubing for half the cost - including thicker zmt. Solid rigid tubing, maintenance free is a bit of a stretch as all loops need it, but without it being see through it doesn't stain, really bites nice on the EKWB barbs and holds its dorm. Would still recommend regardless of the price as I paid it myself.

ottimo tubo, peccato che il diametro interno non sua di 10mm,nei raccordi a compressione (della stessa ek).non entra...ho dovuto allargare limando

Excellent tubing

Ürünün kalitesi çok iyi

passe parfaitement avec des Barrow THKN-3/8-V4, et un peux de liquide vaisselle.

Super schlauch, keine ablagerungen !
