Question about radiator fitting and size suitability
Question about radiator fitting and size suitability
I'm checking out a radiator on eBay and I'm interested in the one described in the link you provided. I want to know if the connectors I see will fit inside the red threaded holes (the ones marked G1/4). All the listings say they are Threaded G1/4, but the radiators list them as Threaded G4/1. I'm wondering if this is just a mistake since there aren't any water cooling fittings labeled G4/1 available.
I'm looking at these specific fittings:
- https://www.ebay.ca/itm/G1-4-14mm-OD-4-L...er-Cooling
- https://www.ebay.ca/itm/G1-4-Thread-Poin...er-Cooling
those fittings should function, but there are larger problems. The radiator is made of aluminum, so if you use copper blocks, the two metals will react and cause issues. You might want to invest more in nickel-plated blocks or consider a copper radiator instead.
