Hadica EK Water Blocks EK-Pro 17/10mm vystužená EPDM predtvarovaná 45° & 90°

EK Water Blocks EK-Pro 17/10mm Reinforced EPDM Preformed 45° & 90° tubing is a pre-bent, reinforced EPDM coolant hose designed for custom PC liquid cooling loops. The tubing is manufactured to fit a 17 mm outer diameter and 10 mm inner diameter, offering a balance of flexibility and structural stability for routing coolant between components. Preformed 45° and 90° bends reduce the need for additional fittings in compact layouts and help maintain smooth fluid flow through directional changes.

Advantages

The reinforced EPDM construction resists kinking while preserving flexibility needed for tight builds. Pre-bent 45° and 90° sections simplify installation and reduce the number of connectors required, lowering potential leak points. The consistent inner diameter supports predictable flow rates and compatibility with fittings sized for 10 mm ID tubing. The material choice delivers chemical compatibility with common water-cooling fluids and improved longevity compared to non-reinforced rubber hoses.

Suitable for

• Custom PC liquid cooling loops with 10 mm inner diameter fittings
• Tight case layouts requiring precise 45° and 90° turns
• Replacement of worn or damaged flexible coolant tubing
• Setups where reduced use of additional fittings is desired

Key specifications

• Outer diameter: 17 mm
• Inner diameter: 10 mm
• Material: reinforced EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer)
• Preformed angles: 45° and 90° sections included
• Flexible yet kink-resistant construction suitable for tight routing

How to use

Measure and plan the loop route to determine where the preformed 45° and 90° sections will be most effective. Slide the tubing onto compatible barbs or compression fittings sized for 10 mm inner diameter, ensuring a secure fit and proper sealing. Trim straight sections if necessary using a sharp tubing cutter to achieve square, burr-free ends before attaching. Verify that bends are seated correctly and that there is no undue stress on fittings or components once the loop is filled and pressurized during testing.

Recommendations

Flush the cooling loop and inspect fittings before installation. Use clamps or compression fittings appropriate for 10 mm ID tubing to prevent slippage. Avoid overstretching the tubing and maintain recommended bend radii; if additional direction changes are needed, use appropriate fittings rather than forcing the tube. Periodically inspect for signs of wear, hardening, or chemical degradation and replace tubing as needed to maintain system integrity.
