The most common hard tubes are clear and transparent. In addition, hard tubes made of brass and carbon have also become popular. 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 within the system. Especially after filling the system, the actual effect is best seen. 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 much in 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 resembles the original look. This can create an additional effect, but if you want to maintain the Ice Tube appearance, you should use appropriate fittings for bends.
