    Bitspower Angle Fitting, BP-WTP-C26

    Hey guys, quick question:

    How do I get this barb (BP-WTP-C26) to face in the desired direction when it is screwed into a water block?

    No matter what angle I start screwing in the threads, it will end in the same undesired direction.

    Does there exist some sort of swivel adapter?

    I've just re-done my loop and got a bunch of rotary fittings in there, many angled at 45 degrees or 90 degrees etc.

    I'm really, really terrified that the seals between each segment that allows for rotation is going to be pulled apart by torque from the tubing.

    :S

    make your tubing more correct length.
    If your annoyed by sigs telling you to put things in your sig, then put this in your sig

    The top one allows u to put any barb or attachment u choose.
    But if u total the cost with barb its more expensive then the bottom one which is set with a barb.

    If you want to splurg get the top one, and add a barb too it.

    especially if you're not set on tubing size, or barb / compression.

    I found you don't ned as many rotary as you have fittings, just where you need exact bends or lines. I used 6 rotary on 16 fittings in a good build I did, you should be safe with half.
