quick release

Preci · 12 Jan 2012 at 10:02

well i have been lookin at some quick release fittings mainly for draining my pc and was thinkin of gettin ithe 2 male 1 female or 2 female 1 male and the prices are well abit to much!

so got me thinking, they are basicly the same as air compressor fittings with o-rings, so could i not in a way just get some of those and use for draining?

dont think i would put them into the loop its self but get a 3 port block as like a pass though with the connector on it for when i need to drain.

i have just redone my loop due to new case and new res but its a bay res and not very accessable. the way i have it is Res > Pump > Rad1 > CPU > GFX > Rad2 > Res, Rad 2 is the lowest point on case being at the bottom with a big tube so would be a perfect place for a quick release,

T lines i have always been abit weary of and look messy

do you think that air compressor fittings will work or be Very wrong?

so how would i do that then? how do i plug the T line so it is easy to drain?
