Soldato
Pasty why don't you ask the members who watercool to send you a sample of tubing> 16/10 if they can spare it.
The 16/10mm tubing for my "experiment" arrived this morning. I ordered a 1m length of both XSPC and Masterkleer tubing to test with these 16/10mm fittings that don't work with the Mayhems 16/10mm tubing. Both new lengths of tubing are gripped better by the competitor branded, Alphacool and EK 16/10mm compression fittings but I could still pull the tubing out of them with a bit more effort than the Mayhems tubing so I still wouldn't be happy using them. The shocking thing was that the Monsoon Chaingun fittings and competitor branded 90 degree rotary 16/10mm compression fittings doesn't grip the tubing at all. Seeing as the Monsoon fittings are not cheap I find this to be quite incredible as they are not fit for purpose.
So now I am stuck with a load of fittings that don't work and I cannot sell on. The Monsoon fittings were bought from OCUK and were on special offer so by the time I return them for a refund I will only clear about a tenner after return postage so it's not worth bothering with. The rest though were bought from a competitor who is based in Germany. I bought them through the UK site but to raise a ticket it's all in German and they refuse to respond to me in English so it look's like I have lost £60 odd with them and will not be buying from them again.
