AlphaCool Presents 34 New Eiszapfen Series Liquid Cooling Fittings
The Eiszapfen high-end product series from Alphacool is growing exponentially today. After the launch of a whole battery of new products like new expansion tanks, quick fasteners, ball valves, and tops for D5 and DDC pumps, it was only a matter of time until Alphacool also added new connectors to the Eis-family.
The new connectors are called Eiszapfen (Icicle). The complete line offers a high-quality and state-of-the-art outer finish for a better overall aesthetic in the connectors. The chrome-plated connectors have a strong, attractive glossy shine, while the black connectors come in a classy matte finish. In order to give the complete look that finishing touch, the connectors have been lacquered inside as well. This way any unattractive colour transitioning is completely gone.Further improvements have been made to the rotatable connectors. They now have a double O-ring, which ensures greater safety. The typical "wobbling" of the rotatable connectors is eliminated almost entirely in the Eiszapfen, due to superior manufacturing.
All Eiszapfen connectors are packed in a foam bed in order to prevent any damage in transport. Every connector includes three O-rings in yellow, orange and turquoise. The O-rings are UV-reactive and glow after they have been exposed to UV light.
There are a total of 34 different new Eiszapfen connectors.

I don't like that there is same kind of branding, but at least acool is kind of unassuming and blends nicely, while big BP's dragon stamped on everything is truly annoying.
To be honest it was about time AC released some new fittings because old offerings (including Phobya brand) were quite often very iffy in quality. Some rotatory (which I have and use as plugs if I need to paint something or protect the thread for some other jobs) have just ridiculous play and never worked properly from the start.
Go AC!
Especially some rotary fittings were so bad, they weren't even tight enough and started to leak. Never again. Cheaper isn't necessarily better... ;)
