I nees to slpit a 12mil (1/2inch) line into 3 x 6mm... then join the back together again

anyone know where I can get some manifolds to do it ?

Im sure some watercoolking shops use to sell them... but I cant find any now :(

Im trying to save on having 4xt-pieces and 6x12mm to 6mm adapters

plus Im hopeing to put all the flow trhough it, so was it to be as little of a restriction as possible :)

closest i can find atm :-s

there maybe more suitable ones on places like farnells or maybe RS as these are anodized aluminium.

Serious

Easiest way would be to soft solder or even braze a pair of custom bits. Shouldnt be difficult TBH

its getting unbelievably hard to get decent water cooling stuff these days, spiralling back towards the days when you had to make everything yourself.

Drill press + lump of clear acrylic + some hose fitings = manifold

Im open to product ideas  :mrgreen:

Airlines is the only place I can think of as well. Coolercases used to sell colored anodized ones but I dont think they do anymore.

Mongoose

no I looked on coolercases as soon as I saw this, foolishly thinking "coolercases sell EVERYTHING". Apparently not any more.

do you mean to imply by that comment that you yourself are affiliated with a purveyor of watercooling gizmos? gonna need some bits and bobs myself fairly soon when my current motherboard finally goes to that great LANparty in the sky


Mongoose

cool, nice looking kit you have there.

The Tekforums has its very own resident water cooling manufacturer again, just like old times

and as for the manifolds...

Im getting 4 x 12m T-peices... then Ive got some hydralic hose here thats 6mil internal, and 12mil external diamater... so Ill shove a bit inside the 12mil stuff coming from the splitters, then the other end right ontop the blocks :)

just need some little hose clamps for it and the T-peices... but iic B+Q do them so Ill goi there to get em a bit quicker :)
