DeltaMate ST16 soft-tube fitting for custom loops

The Thermal Grizzly DeltaMate ST16 is a G1/4" compression fitting machined from brass with a matte black chromium coating. It is built for builders assembling a custom water-cooling loop who need a secure connection for flexible tubing. The fitting uses a single tapered barb and an EPDM O-ring to seal soft tubes with a 10/16 mm diameter.

Knurled compression ring

The knurled compression ring grips the tubing with high retention force while the single tapered barb eases insertion across a wide range of flexible plastics. This combination reduces the chance of the tube slipping off under pressure. The uniform outer diameter matches other DeltaMate fittings so every connector in the loop lines up cleanly.

Install with an 8 mm hex key in tight spaces

Compact overall dimensions let the fitting sit in confined areas of the loop without fouling adjacent components. An 8 mm hex key provides the leverage needed for a firm seal without rounding the flats. Builders who prefer hard tubing or a different inner diameter will need a separate fitting type, as this model is specific to soft 10/16 mm tube.

  • Straightforward tube installation with a single tapered barb
  • Secure grip on tubing from the knurled compression ring

Questions about this item

Will the EPDM O-ring on the DeltaMate ST16 fitting need periodic replacement?

The EPDM O-ring resists ozone and UV radiation, so it maintains sealing performance without a scheduled replacement interval.

What limits how long the knurled compression ring can hold 10/16 mm soft tubing under constant pressure?

The single tapered barb and knurled compression ring provide high retention force that does not degrade with sustained use.

Does the matte black chromium coating on the brass body affect heat dissipation during all-day loop operation?

The coating is a thin surface finish; the brass body still conducts heat normally and adds no measurable thermal resistance.
