Advice on insulating metal fitting.

billblog · 20 Jun 2013 at 14:43

I have a metal T fitting at the lowest point in my loop for draining. The problem is it hangs low enough to block my first PCI-E slot. So far I just used the second slow, but I am planning on adding a second graphics card and this will make the fitting rest on the back of the card. I was thinking of just wrapping a small amount of cling film around the fitting to insulate it and stop it shorting. Would this be enough to insulate it, also would there be any risk of the card melting the tubing?

electrical tape would be better

I agree on electrical tape,you could get the fitting plastic coated also

I didn't think of electrical tape but it is the obvious answer. In the long term I really should drain it and shorten the tubes but in the short term that will do.

Thank you.

Can you get a backplate for the new card ?
