The EPDM tube from Alphacool's Enterprise Solutions series is particularly durable compared to conventional PVC tubes due to its high resistance to acids, bases and external influences. The matt black hose with its subtle velvet look is an eye-catcher in every water-cooled PC. Advantage of EPDM Compared to commercially available PVC hoses, the Alphacool EPDM Tube is more temperature-resistant and enables working temperatures well above 100 degree C. Even at higher water temperatures, the hose remains dimensionally stable and prevents distortion in places with tighter bending radii or connections. This eliminates the risk of leaks or restricted water flow. The high resistance to external influences makes the Alphacool EPDM hose particularly durable and long-lasting. Installation Although the Alphacool EPDM Tube is slightly more dimensionally stable than PVC tubing, it still has excellent pliability and flexibility to allow for effortless installation even with tighter bend radii. Fittings The EPDM hose is compatible with any hose fitting (of appropriate size) from Alphacool's Icicle or HF series.
