Compression Fitting Question

Pvt_Ryan · 20 Dec 2014 at 18:36

Doing my 1st custom w/c loop and have what are two potentially really stupid questions.

1. I have blue mosoon compression fittings 6 pack and they come with 2 rubber washers 1 black and 1 blue where do they go?

2. The same as above but have a 90 degree fitting (male & female G1/4 threads)?

I was thinking that they go over the male G1/4 connecter end but if so why are there two and why are they different colours?
Thanks in advance.

Ahh that makes more sense. I was hoping that was the case but having two rings threw me and i started to think "Am i being stupid and missing something"..

Thanks for the help..

Here's the build log incase anyone is interested:

how do people attach the rads to the case.. seems the screws provided with the rads will attach fan to rad but nothing to case.. :/

nexxxos 420 & 280

i have 35mm & 25mm screws BUT they are too small to attach to case in a push cfg. In a pull cfg i'd need 5mm screws.. Either way for them to hold to the case it looks like they need washers.

750d is pretty much screwless.

I'll have to have a hunt.. I'm a bit of a horder

tried some case screws and they are too big for the rad and too small for the case holes on top.

Looks like it is the hardware store tomorrow, here's hoping they stock what i need.

DIY washers were the solution:
