Aqua-Computer tubing 13/10 mm EPDM, black, 1 m – water-cooling hose

Aqua-Computer tubing 13/10 mm EPDM in black is a flexible water-cooling hose sold per meter. With a 13 mm outer diameter and 10 mm inner diameter, this EPDM tubing is designed for custom PC liquid cooling loops and related installations. The hose offers the chemical and temperature resistance characteristic of EPDM materials and is suitable for connecting fittings, radiators, pumps and reservoirs in closed-loop cooling systems where a reliable, flexible connection is required.

Advantages

The EPDM material provides good resistance to heat, cooling liquids and many common additives used in PC water-cooling. Its flexibility allows for tight bends and straightforward routing inside computer cases and custom cooling assemblies. The 13/10 mm dimensioning ensures compatibility with many standard compression fittings and barbed connectors used in liquid cooling setups. Sold by the meter, the hose can be cut to exact lengths for precise installations.

Suitable for

• Custom PC water-cooling loops connecting radiators, pumps, reservoirs and water blocks
• Replacement or extension of existing tubing in desktop liquid cooling systems
• Small-scale liquid-cooling projects and test rigs requiring flexible hose

Key specifications

• Material: EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer)
• Outer diameter: 13 mm
• Inner diameter: 10 mm
• Color: black
• Length: sold per meter (1 m units)
• Flexible construction suitable for tight bends
• Chemical and temperature resistance typical of EPDM

How to use

Measure the required length for your cooling loop and cut the tubing cleanly with a sharp hose cutter to avoid burrs. Slide the hose onto the fitting or barb fully and secure with the appropriate compression ring, clamp or connector specified for 13/10 mm tubing. Ensure connections to radiators, pumps and reservoirs are seated properly and test the system for leaks before fully powering components. Replace sections showing wear or degradation to maintain system integrity.

Recommendations

When assembling a loop, flush new tubing and the rest of the circuit with distilled water before adding coolant to remove manufacturing residues. Avoid exposure to aggressive chemicals not compatible with EPDM and check for compatibility with dyes or additives you plan to use. Periodically inspect connections and replace tubing if signs of hardening, cracking or staining appear.
