    Is that going to be a problem if you plan on using the 7/16" 5/8" OD fittings as thats what i plan on using ?

    Would it still hit the logo. or will it be small enough to fit.

    The logo is just glued on. I just popped mine off and put it back down a few millimeters over. I didn't even think about it not sealing. I metal part of the fitting above the threads is now flush with the top of the block, but I'd hate to use that as my seal. I think I'll try another O-ring and see how that works.

    Im really worried now because i want to order a whole load of the 7/16" 5/8" BP compression fittings but i have a Swiftech MCRes and now a Swiftech Apogee GTZ and there is nowhere in the UK that does the adaptors.

    Im now contemplating some normal 1/2" barbs but am unsure of whether to get the Dtek/DD or Swiftech ones. The Dtek and DD look like they have a recessed O-Ring so im guessing that could cause problems with sealing on the Apogee.

    Are the Swiftech 1/2" Barbs a better choice to go with using 7/16" tubing and a zip tie.

    So in order to prevent leakage, either 1 of the below has to be done?

    1. Shifting of the Swiftech sticker
    2. ST Adapter

    For Bitspower 3/4" OD Compression barbs

    1. Yes
    2. No, the ST adapter is for Swiftech products using their oddball NPSM 1/4" threads. The GTZ uses standard G1/4" threads.

    I have the Swiftech GTZ now and some BP 7/16" 5/8" Compression fittings and you dont have to move the sticker and they seem to tighten very nicely indeed. Ill be ready for leak testing soon but it seems the 5/8 compressions should be just fine on it.
