Cooling System Part Alphacool 17226

The Alphacool 17226 cooling system part is a compact accessory designed for integration into computer liquid-cooling setups. With external dimensions of 27 mm x 20 mm x 27 mm, a male connector and a black finish, this component is intended to improve cooling system routing and connectivity while occupying minimal space inside a chassis.

Advantages

Its small footprint allows installation in confined areas where larger fittings cannot be used. The male connector provides a secure interface with compatible tubing or components, and the black colour helps maintain a uniform aesthetic inside systems with dark-themed builds. The lightweight construction reduces added mass on fittings and tubes, contributing to safer mounting and handling during assembly.

Suitable for

• Custom PC liquid-cooling loops with limited space
• Compact or small-form-factor (SFF) desktop systems
• Maintenance or replacement of existing fittings in black-themed builds
• Routing and connecting components in tight chassis areas

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 27 mm x 20 mm x 27 mm
• Connector type: male connector (for compatible fittings/tubing)
• Colour: Black
• Weight: 0.1 kg
• Category: Computer cooling components

How to use

Install the Alphacool 17226 by aligning its male connector with the corresponding female fitting or tubing end in your cooling loop. Ensure connections are fully seated and tightened according to the specifications of the remaining fittings to prevent leakage. When integrating into a system, plan tubing runs to accommodate the part's dimensions and avoid excessive bending or strain on adjacent components. After installation, pressure-test or run the loop with coolant and monitor for any signs of leakage before returning the system to regular operation.

Recommendations

Use compatible fittings and tubing sizes and follow manufacturer guidelines for tightening torque. Periodically inspect connections for wear, mineral deposit or loosening, especially after the first thermal cycles. Replace the part if visible damage or persistent leakage occurs.
