Alphacool AlphaTube TPV 16/10mm black matte 3.3m
This thermoplastic vulcanizate tubing connects water cooling components such as radiators, waterblocks and reservoirs. It is built for enthusiasts who need chemical resistance and high temperature stability in custom loops. The 16/10mm sizing fits standard compression fittings used in many builds.
Practical limits of TPV material
The hose withstands operating temperatures from -50 to +155C without warping, unlike PVC which can deform at lower heat levels. It resists acids and alkalis, giving it longer service life in fluid circuits. The 3.3m length supplies enough material for most single-loop configurations.
Installation notes and common issues
The tube installs like regular PVC hose but is slightly stiffer, so tight bends need more care to avoid kinking. Using heat to soften the material helps achieve clean radii. Cut ends must be square and deburred before fitting to prevent leaks.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 16/10 mm size for my loop?
The 16 mm outer and 10 mm inner diameter matches common G1/4 fittings; choose it if your blocks and radiators use that standard.
What does the 155 °C rating mean once the tube is in my PC?
It guarantees the hose keeps its shape and flow up to 155 °C, so tight bends near hot components will not kink or restrict coolant.
How does the TPV material affect daily use compared with ordinary PVC?
TPV resists acids and alkalis far better than PVC and stays stable at much higher temperatures, giving longer service life in a custom loop.
