Hi,

I am getting a new rad at the end of the month and thought i would change my tubing to matte black but i'm really struggling to find any at 13/19 1/2 3/4 size. Does it exist anymore?

For matte black any EPDM 1/2" 1/4" OD should work. Doesn't necessarily have to be from a PC Watercooling brand.

Can probably pick some up
At your local car factors
I have done that in the past
Luckily for me there's half a dozen local independent
Car parts places near me
Epdm or even silicone tubing is used in cars

Just in case it's throwing you off, the outside diameter of 19mm correlates to ¾" not ¼"!

Thanks for the heads up, was a typo and edited the OP.

And for whatever it's worth
I have also put 16mm /10mm tubing onto
3/4 fittings before
Picked up some 3/4 quick disconnects cheaply
But didn't want to bother changing all my tubing
Quick dip in a cup of hot water
And on they went
Worked fine for years no problems
