Koolance announced that it has released a set of quick disconnect water cooling fittings for 3 mm inner diameter tubing. Koolance said the QD1H no-spill quick disconnect fittings were designed to be as small as possible while taking advantage of the company’s patented auto-shutoff, no-spill quick disconnect mechanism.
These new fittings are offered with barbs and clamps, but the company didn’t mention a compression fitting option. Koolance sells the quick disconnects as individual parts, not as a set. The female couplings are only available with barb ends, but the option to get threaded QD1H fittings is offered for male couplings.
