Description of πŸ”© EKWB EK-Quantum Torque STC-10/13 Compression Fitting for Soft Tubing, 10/13mm (3/8 inch Inner Diameter, 1/2 inch Outer Diameter), Nickel Plated, Pack of 6

EK-Torque STC 10/13 Nickel fittings are 10/13mm (ID/OD) compression fittings designed for use with soft tubing types such as PVC, EPDM, Norprene and silicone. They can be complemented by interchangeable aesthetic color rings for a perfect match with EK-Quantum series products (aesthetic rings are sold separately). The locking ring prevents solid tube to be pulled out of the fitting by compressing the rubber gasket underneath the ring. The outer diameter of a fitting: 20mm. Unit Count: 6-pack.

Good hardware is best for internals

I recently upgraded to a fully custom hinge and needed additional hardware as the kit I bought was short. These fittings feel snug and allow for a really good grip on the hoses you may be using. I've also connected a few with angle fittings and had no trouble tightening or installing. They can work with fittings from other brands, but I didn't want to take any risks and left everything under the EK brand.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Good quality. 5/8 OD may be too big for limited space.

These fittings are for 5/8 OD soft tubing. You can check the OD to make sure your block has enough room for 5/8 OD. The hole for connecting the GTX 680 water block is too close to the GPU card. I couldn't tighten g 1/4 because the edge of the GTX 680 card is in the way. I don't want to use a drill to cut the GPU board. I end up switching both connection holes down where there are no obstructions. The caveat is that if the two holes are on the same side, you may need to make sure that routing…

High quality and strong fit for soft tubing.

They match the EKWB Softtubes very well and are easier to install than previous versions. I have actually switched to all EKWB liquid cooling products as they hold up well and I cut my hands less when I have to modify or build larger projects. I've used over 200 of these and none of them have leaked or had product quality issues. I recommend this product for those new to liquid cooling, just make sure you buy tubes that match the size as well.

Pros
  • Water Coolers
Cons
  • Alright
