Koolance QD3-FS10X16 QD3 Female Quick Disconnect No-Spill Coupling, Compression for 10mm x 16mm (3/8in x 5/8in)

After my first encounter with trying to bleed my loop on a Ghost S1, I desperately needed a better way. Before I was using a crossflow rad with ports at the top going to a rad. Super clunky, hard to tilt the chassis around and have a place to put the res, etc.; was just a huge pain in the ass for me. What was even worse was when I tried to flush the system with Mayhem Blitz, nearly committed seppuku after the process. Enter these quick connects. I plugged up a 160 res and voila. Draining's a cinch, filling's a cinch, bleeding's a cinch. I love these to death, and I'll probably end up incorporating them into all future SFF builds. Some quick characteristics for people who care:* No water droplets when disconnecting. A little wetness, maybe on one of the twenty disconnects I made, there was what appeared to be half a droplet that I visibly could see but wasn't concerned about it dripping off.* Firm connection, but can be disconnected one-handed without too much hassle.* Disconnection basically blasts off the male fitting like a cannon. Obvious exaggeration but it's quite a strong spring effect.* No obvious effect on flow rate, if that was a concern to begin with.Again, love em to death. I bought one spare set for literally no reason I was so appreciative of its ease.

Incredibly convenient, especially if you find yourself replacing parts in and out of your pc. A little bit pricey considering you need the male end as well but you will see how practical it is once you have them installed. Didn't notice any leakage either when I disconnected with water inside my tubing.

BEST QUICK DISCONNECT EVER
