I didn't used them on my past loop. Did i do wrong?
No no, just envious...:yepp:Quote:

What you're doing is ensuring the barbs' threads don't protrude into the water chamber. So everything depends on what barbs are used and where.
I didn't know this would turn into who's the got the biggest/most tubing competition hahahaha :)
Good stuff, disruptfam ... am enjoying your progress and looking forward to the pics when you load everything in the case.
cheers shazza... Love the big daddy in your avatar !! :up: :) :ROTF:Quote:

So basically, you use the spacer only when a barb* is hooked on the acrylic side? What about those plugs? Do i need to use the spacer as well if i hook a plug on the acrylic side?
Thanks :)
To tell the truth i don't know... about the plug's and the spacer....
Jedda???
You only want a spacer where the barb or blanking plug's thread is long enough to stick past the material into the chamber.
They're an alternative to short threaded barbs.
ahk.... the plug's don't stick in... but the barb on the copper side is about 2mm inside... will i need the spacer on the side with the barb aswell??Quote:

I put them on my copper side barbs but mine aren't EK.
Well, I have all Ek barbs and i just noticed that i had both Ek barbs hooked on the Acrylic side on my past loop. Had no probs at all and had great temps so! Heh
Yeah, I guess if EK didn't include the spacers you wouldn't notice much.Quote:

Probably. Although I'm always striving to get all the little details right. They add up in the end.Quote:

I put the distancer on both sides just to be safe :up:Quote:
