UV Blue Transparent Tubing

Alphacool AlphaTube HF 13/10 is a 1 metre length of UV blue transparent tubing designed for custom liquid cooling loops. The color comes from the tube material itself, removing the need for dyed coolant and the particulate strain it can introduce. Manufacturing in Germany aims to deliver consistent quality for builders who want vivid color without additives.

Soft Handling for Tight Bends

The plastic mixture is formulated to combine kink resistance with easy handling, making it suitable for both beginners and advanced users working in confined spaces. Builders who require larger inner diameters or longer continuous runs from a single pack should look at other options.

10 mm Inner Diameter Capacity

The 10 mm inner diameter (13 mm outer) provides standard flow capacity for typical CPU and GPU blocks in a single loop. Runs that demand higher volume throughput or multiple parallel components will reach the practical limit of this bore size.

Questions about this item

What inner diameter fittings do I need for the 13/10 tubing?

Use fittings made for 10 mm inner diameter to match the 13/10 tube size.

Can I mix this UV Blue tube with older rigid acrylic runs?

Yes, as long as the rigid sections also use 10 mm ID fittings the loop will seal correctly.

How do I confirm the UV effect is active after filling the loop?

Shine a UV light on the tube; the blue transparent material will glow visibly.
