The EPDM tube from Alphacool's Enterprise Solutions series is characterized by its high resistance to acids, bases and external influences and has an exceptional durability compared to conventional PVC tubes. The matt black tube with its subtle velvet look quickly becomes an eye-catcher in any water-cooled PC. What is the advantage of EPDM? Compared to commercially available PVC hoses, Alphacool's EPDM tube is significantly more temperature-resistant and enables working temperatures well in excess of 100 degree C. Even at higher water temperatures, the EPDM tube remains dimensionally stable and prevents the tube from warping in places with tighter bending radii or connections. This eliminates the risk of the water circuit leaking or the water flow being obstructed. The high resistance to external influences makes the Alphacool EPDM hose extremely durable and long-lasting. Installation The Alphacool EPDM Tube is somewhat more dimensionally stable compared to a PVC tube. Nevertheless, it has excellent flexibility and flexibility for effortless assembly even with tighter bending radii. connections The EPDM hose can be used with all hose fittings (of the appropriate size) from Alphacool's Icicle or HF series.
