looking for UV reactive water cooling tubing.

I ordered this stuff from frozencpu because it was under the 3/8 ID section.

needless to say its 8mm so it doesnt fit my 3/8ID connectors. Does anyone know where I can get this stuff? i want it to be UV reactive but also clear like this stuff is. Thanks

don't get UV tubing, get clear tubing and UV dye it looks alot better

would like to but im using koolance and not only do there koolants have blue non-UV dye in them they said they dont recommend using UV dyes with their products.

Here you go--several types of tubing, etc. Performance PCs is the ******. Granted, they do mess up an order every once in a while, but they will fix it.

 

[tony4704]

thanks, but none of those tubes are like the one in my picture though. closest are the thermaltake ones but I want blue

If you want blue UV reactive, use about 1 capful of this.. It will actually eventually end up giving clear tubing a blue tint too.

I can post pics later if you want. I have to dig em out though, I diched the WC setup about a year ago.

That's weird... I'm using Koolance too and as far as I can tell their liquid coolant is UV reactive.

 

[tony4704]

well it is somewhat, as it glows under UV a little. Its just not true UV reactive. It definetly does not glow as brightly as the other components in my system that are designated as UV reactive. I think it just glows because of its color, kind of like how all the white connectors in my case glow to the UV as well yet they are not UV reactive.

True UV reactive additive would scew up the pump. So either take that chance, or get tubing. But as far as tubing, I have found that using commercial grade from any hardware place is best- get it really thick, though.
