The most common hard tubes are clear and transparent. In addition, hard tubes made of brass and carbon have also gained popularity. Now, Alphacool offers the Ice Tube as part of its Ice products. The surface visually resembles ice and feels that way too—somewhat rough, yet still smooth.

The Ice Tube significantly alters the appearance of the system. Especially after filling the system, the actual effect is best observed. The water has the look of frozen ice. When the circuit is illuminated with LEDs, the reflection of the individual LEDs is very clear in transparent hard tubes, but not so with the Ice Tubes. Here, the light is diffused, resulting in a much softer and better illumination.

Note:
The Ice Tube can be bent like all acrylic hard tubes using the appropriate bending tools. However, the appearance of the Ice Tubes at the bends noticeably changes and no longer corresponds to the original look. This can create an additional effect, but anyone who wants to maintain the Ice Tube appearance should use appropriate fittings for bends.
