Fitting EK Water Blocks Brass Nickel Silver 33mm

EK-Quantum Torque Double Rotary Offset 28 - Nickel is a two-joint, revolvable male+female threaded offset adapter designed for liquid-cooled PC systems. Machined from nickel-plated brass and sealed with NBR O-rings, this 28mm offset fitting allows precise alignment of tubing to distribution plate ports and is commonly used to correctly route hard tubing to GPU and CPU water blocks. The design matches the EK-Quantum Torque family and replaces several older parts by combining offsetting, rotation and extension functions in a single compact fitting.

Advantages

The fitting integrates two separate rotating joints, including a central rotating element, enabling both offset and angular adjustment with tactile clicks every 45 degrees for repeatable positioning. Made from CNC-machined nickel-plated brass and sealed with quality NBR O-rings, it can be tightened from the top with a hex key when knurling is inaccessible. Its dimensions and EK-Matrix7 compatibility make it suitable for aligning Vector² GPU water blocks and other components to achieve parallel, straight tube runs into a distribution plate.

Suitable for

• Aligning hard tubing to distribution plate ports on GPU and CPU water blocks
• Offsetting parallel or perpendicular tubing runs in custom liquid cooling loops
• Replacing multiple angled rotaries and short extenders with a single fitting

Key specifications

• Material: Nickel-plated CNC machined brass
• Sealing: NBR O-rings
• Offset size: 28 mm
• Threading: Male + female threaded connection (G1/4" standard interface)
• Height (product data): 33 mm
• Finish: Nickel / silver appearance
• Compatibility: Designed to EK-Matrix7 standard; fits EK-Quantum Torque series aesthetic

How to use

Install the male and female threaded ends into the corresponding ports on water blocks or distribution plates, hand-tightening first and then using a wrench or hex key to secure the fitting. Use the central rotating element and the two rotating joints to offset and angle the tubing as needed; tactile clicks occur every 45 degrees for predictable stops, but you may stop at any intermediate angle. If knurling is inaccessible, use a hex key on the top engagement point to tighten the fitting securely.

Recommendations

When routing hard tubing from GPU or CPU water blocks to a distribution plate, plan tube runs and test-fit the fitting orientation before final tightening to avoid stressing the tubing or ports. Ensure O-rings are seated properly and check for leaks after filling the loop.
