Compression fitting Barrow 13/10 mm, black – TFHRKN38B B

Barrow compression fitting for 13/10 mm tubing in black finish is a precision connector designed for custom liquid cooling loops and compact fluid routing installations. The fitting provides a tool-assisted compression interface between 13 mm outer-diameter and 10 mm inner-diameter hard or soft tubing, creating a secure, low-profile joint that resists leaks and vibration. Its black finish blends with modern PC builds and professional plumbing of small fluid systems where aesthetics and reliable sealing are important.

Advantages

The compression mechanism ensures a tight mechanical seal without the need for adhesive, while the black surface treatment offers corrosion resistance and a discreet appearance. The fitting is engineered for repeatable connections and disconnections, supporting maintenance and system reconfiguration. Its compact form factor minimizes space usage in densely packed enclosures and helps maintain smooth coolant flow with reduced turbulence at the join.

Suitable for

• Custom PC water-cooling loops using 13/10 mm tubing
• Small liquid cooling systems in workstations or compact servers
• Fluid routing in prototypes, lab rigs, or demonstration units
• Applications requiring compact, serviceable, leak-resistant tubing connections

Key specifications

• Tube compatibility: 13 mm outer diameter / 10 mm inner diameter
• Finish: black surface treatment for reduced reflectivity and improved appearance
• Connection type: compression fitting for tool-assisted tightening
• Material characteristics: engineered for corrosion resistance and mechanical durability
• Form factor: compact, low-profile design to suit tight installations

How to use

Slide the compression nut and ferrule onto the tubing, insert the tubing end fully into the fitting body until it seats against the internal stop, then tighten the compression nut with an appropriate tool until the ferrule compresses and forms a secure seal. For hard tubing, ensure the tube end is square-cut and deburred before assembly. After installation, inspect the joint and run a pressure or leak test at operating conditions to confirm sealing integrity before full system operation.

Recommendations

Use compatible 13/10 mm tubing and avoid overtightening the compression nut to prevent deformation of the tube. Perform routine inspections at first startup and after thermal cycles; re-tighten if minor settling is observed. When disassembling, relieve system pressure and drain fluid before loosening the fitting.
