Description
Bitspower simplifies the most challenging aspect of custom loop building with these pre-bent 90-degree brass tubes. Crafted from high-quality brass and finished in premium Black Sparkle or Silver, these tubes offer a rigid, leak-resistant solution for enthusiasts who demand perfection without the trial-and-error of manual bending. By providing factory-accurate angles, Bitspower lowers the barrier to entry for metallic hard-tubing builds while ensuring a clean, industrial aesthetic that remains stable even under high thermal loads.
This product is for:
- Custom PC builders looking for a premium metallic aesthetic that plastic tubing cannot provide.
- Beginners in liquid cooling who want to avoid the complexity and waste of manual heat-gun bending.
- Professional modders requiring consistent, uniform 90-degree angles across multiple high-end builds.
- Users upgrading from PETG or Acrylic to more durable, heat-resistant metal components.
- System integrators aiming for faster assembly times without sacrificing the visual quality of a custom loop.

Working with metal tubing often requires specialized tools and significant patience, but Bitspower’s pre-bent solution changes the workflow entirely. The 220mm and 300mm legs provide ample length to reach between components, requiring only a simple cut to size with a dedicated tube cutter. The brass construction feels substantial and provides better thermal stability than plastic alternatives, while the electroplated finish resists corrosion and maintains a mirror-like or deep matte shine over years of operation. This approach ensures that even first-time builders can achieve the tight tolerances and sharp lines characteristic of professional-grade workstations.
Unlike PETG or Acrylic tubing, which can warp under extreme coolant temperatures or become brittle over time, these brass tubes offer permanent structural integrity. While DIY bending of straight brass tubes requires a pipe bender and often results in unsightly kinks or finish cracking, these factory-bent units ensure a perfect, uniform radius every time. This makes them a more reliable and time-efficient choice than manual labor for achieving a clean, high-performance look that stands up to the rigors of high-wattage hardware.
Q&A:
- How do I cut these brass tubes to the correct length? Use a dedicated metal pipe cutter rather than a saw to ensure a clean, burr-free edge that won't damage fitting O-rings.
- Are these tubes compatible with all 16mm fittings? They are designed for 16mm OD hard tube fittings; however, using Bitspower brand fittings ensures the tightest tolerances and best leak prevention.
- Do I need to chamfer the edges after cutting? Yes, always use a reamer or sandpaper to smooth the inner and outer edges of the cut to prevent damage to the internal seals of your fittings.
- Can I re-bend these tubes if the angle isn't perfect? No, these are factory-set at 90 degrees; attempting to re-bend brass without professional equipment will likely cause kinking or finish damage.
- Will the Black Sparkle finish chip during installation? The electroplated finish is highly durable, but it is recommended to use soft-jaw tools or cloth protection when handling to maintain the pristine surface.
