Fitting Alphacool 17471 — brass black, Ø22 mm, height 20 mm

Alphacool 17471 is a brass fitting finished in black, designed for use in computer liquid cooling systems. With an outer diameter of 22 mm and a height of 20 mm, this compact metal fitting provides a robust connection point between tubing and components in a water-cooling loop. The fitting's brass construction and black surface treatment deliver mechanical stability and corrosion resistance suitable for long-term use in PC cooling setups.

Advantages

The brass material ensures good strength and durability while resisting typical corrosion in closed-loop coolant environments. The black finish offers a neutral visual appearance that integrates with a variety of build styles. Its compact height and standardized 22 mm diameter make it compatible with tubing and components that accept this dimension, providing a secure metal interface for reliable sealing and reduced risk of leaks compared with soft fittings.

Suitable for

• Connecting flexible coolant tubing to radiators, pumps, or reservoirs with 22 mm interface
• PC custom water-cooling loops requiring a compact metal fitting
• Builds prioritizing mechanical stability and corrosion-resistant connections

Key specifications

• Material: brass with black surface finish
• Outer diameter: 22 mm
• Height: 20 mm
• Weight: 23 g
• Application: fittings for liquid cooling in computers

How to use

Install the fitting by seating it into the corresponding tubing or component port designed for a 22 mm interface. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before assembly. Use appropriate clamps or compression rings where required to secure flexible tubing onto the fitting and to achieve a tight seal. Follow the cooling loop assembly sequence recommended for your system—typically connecting radiators, reservoir, pump and blocks in a planned order—and perform a pressure or leak test before full system operation.

Recommendations

When assembling, verify compatibility with your tubing and other metal fittings to avoid galvanic corrosion; use coolant additives or corrosion inhibitors recommended for brass components. Tighten clamps evenly without over-torquing and perform a leak test with the pump running and the system powered off to ensure a secure installation.
