Hiya guys,
I saw some people complaining about not using tube clamps/worm drive clips on their tubing. Like i said to them i've been running 3/8" Tygon...
Inner Diameter - 3/8" - (10mm)
Outer Diameter - 5/8" - (16mm)
Wall Thickness - 1/8" - (3mm)
on 1/2" barbs for over a year now, in all temps overclocked etc without an issue.
I initially went this route becuase of the spacing between the barbs on the Fuzion. In both my build i did this and only put plastic hose clamps on certain points like the rad in the roof, and on the pump (in Rig 2). But other than that i haven't had any of the issues people have with 7/16" tubing. So if u would like a nice clean look i can highly recommend 3/8" tygon on 1/2" barbs. Though it's best on EK barbs, i have used fatboys in Rig 2 but you simply cannot remove the tube, which is really a bonus till u need to strip it down lol.
So EK 1/2" barbs with 3/8" Tygon tube FTW!!
