I was given 10 ek 3/8 compression fittings for Christmas

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-123-EK&groupid=962&catid=1529&subcat=2229

I stupidly ordered the xspc 3/8 tubing not considering the OD (naive I know

)

Now OCUK being the legends they are, are happy to take it back.

Now to save myself anymore downtime feeling like an idiot can someone point me in the direction of tubing that will fit correctly?

Thank you in advance for saving my sanity.

I think you might have to google something like ''(3/8 - 1/2) 13/10mm Hose''

Not somthing ocuk stock then?

Shame I feel I owe them the purchase for mucking them about

Thank you though

I had to get my tubing from another site and OCUK don't stock the tubing that fits the EK kits. Shame really

Such a shame I rather liked the xspc tubing

Thank you for helping

You need 1000 posts and need to post that in the member section

I've used EK fittings with Masterkleer clear tubing on three loops and have never found any problems with either leaks or plasticiser or kinks. Ive used mayhems aurora blue and Phobya ZuperZero UV red, haven't found any discolouration.

I've seen some pretty nasty pictures of some other tubing going from clear to a cloudy sickly yellow in just a month with just distilled water + additives (no dyes!).
