Hose connector Alphacool 17593 Brass Chrome 21mm

The Alphacool 17593 hose connector is a 45° angled G1/4" brass adapter finished in chrome, designed for computer water-cooling loops. It measures 21 mm in width and provides a compact, reliable connection where space is limited. The Eiszapfen Connector Series focuses on high flow, precise form and durable surface treatment to maintain appearance and function in PC cooling systems.

Advantages

The brass construction ensures corrosion resistance and mechanical strength while the chrome finish offers a polished appearance and additional surface protection. A specialised coating process bonds the finish to the metal to reduce chipping and peeling over time. The connector carries the Alphacool logo and the series’ distinctive shape, combining visual consistency with practical high-flow performance.

Suitable for

• PC water-cooling loops with limited installation space
• Connections requiring a 45° G1/4" female-to-female adapter
• Systems where durable, corrosion-resistant fittings are needed

How to use

Install the connector into G1/4" threaded ports by hand-starting the threads and tightening to a secure fit with appropriate tools, taking care not to overtighten. Use compatible tubing and seals intended for PC water-cooling systems. Verify that the 45° orientation provides the required routing clearance before final assembly, and pressure-test the loop after installation to check for leaks.

Recommendations

For best results, use compatible PTFE tape or suitable sealing washers on the G1/4" threads, avoid excessive torque to prevent thread damage, and periodically inspect fittings for signs of wear or corrosion. Choose the chrome finish to match polished systems or select the matte black variant where a low-reflective appearance is preferred.
