Mayhems Glass

[Mayhems]

We at Mayhems have been looking into tubing for a while now and there are plenty of Acrylic and P.T.E.G Style tubing already out there and lets be honest they do not have the style that glass will have. So we've been working on some new glass tubing for PC modding that will give that extra zing that no other tubing will give.

Now we understand this wont be for every one but Mayhems as brand is all ways for ever one, we cater for people whom wish to stand out not be part of a heard.

Mayhems New glass tubing in 12,13,16mm

Each section is 500mm Long

You cut them with a cheap diamond cutter on a dremmel and then sound down with wet and dry (use it wet). Use a Paper mask and protective glasses when working on it. Its not hard top work with. Then use any hard line fitting for 12,13 or 16mm.

Nice.

Any prices yet? Know it will be expensive though.

How you going to bend the tube? You going to knock up a mini aceteline torch kit?
I'll buy some just for the gas ax

 

[Deathjester]

Can you bend it?

 

[Mayhems]

You dont bend it its hardened glass so if you try to bend it, it will weaken the structure of the tube. We can make bends pre made how ever we've found they are not strong enough so its best to use fittings instead and do straight runs.

As for pricing it will be released soon as we know as were are discussing it with resellers.

Should be cheap but wont be.

We buy sight glasses for chemical tanks direct from the glassworks. A 1.8m tube, 63mm diamater costs us around £22 to buy.

In fact ill have to grab their catalog since the make everything for the chemist lab type stuff an see if they have any suitable small tubing

 

[pastymuncher]

That's interesting. Not for me though. I would be terrified of cracking a tube or overtightening a fitting and cracking the tube.

 

[Glanza]

Can't wait to see some builds with this.

 

[PFarrey]

This is very exciting. I have a PC to build for my son, I will probably give this a try. Presumably you use normal hardline fittings?

 

[Mayhems]

Yeh you can, like hard line acrylic don't over tighten any fittings though.

 

[tipes]

Yeh you can, like hard line acrylic don't over tighten any fittings though.

Could be a shattering experience ha ha.

Will be interesting to see what comes out of this!

 

[Mayhems]

Its some thing different and a cut above the rest .

 

[chillidog]

at 500mm that's almost my full length/height of my d900 ,i can see plenty of cuting's. i can see some droping these tubes by accidentally on the floor.
sorry it may look and sound good but its not for me.

Mayhems have yous got an system on video all set up for us to see ?

 

[Mayhems]

Were passing it onto modders first to do tutorial videos (B-Neg and the like) and builds, we do have our own but were not as clean as the pro modders out there hence we would rather wait. Also the fact were moving over to a new place that 3 times larger this has taken lot's of work and time away from playing.

 

[mushtafa]

How does this compare to PETG or Acrylic tubing? Will it actually look any different?

 

[tipes]

Its some thing different and a cut above the rest .

Touche Lol, Ouch.

 

[Mayhems]

@mushtafa its looks much cleaner and straight and you can see the wall much better also it wont stain.

 

[mushtafa]

Oh, didn't think about the staining. It's not something I will buy (water cooling is too expensive!), but still looking forward to some build pics and reviews.

Interesting concept but pre-ordering every single bend is not something that many people will like. Good for projects where people need straight tubes and use fittings to route the flow at angles.
