Common Applications
The TDWT45-B01 is a brass 45-degree male-to-female adapter for custom water cooling loops. The G1/4 male end threads into a block, pump or reservoir; the G1/4 female end carries the next fitting and rotates a full 360 degrees on a sealed o-ring so the outgoing direction can be aimed anywhere around the axis. A 45-degree bend imposes less flow restriction than a 90-degree fitting and is the usual choice when the run only needs to be nudged sideways, for example to clear a motherboard heatsink or align hard tubing into a reservoir port. The fitting is also available in matching silver and white finishes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How is this different from a 90-degree fitting?
A: It bends the flow path by 45 degrees instead of 90, which is gentler on flow and useful when a 90 would over-rotate the next fitting.
Q: Is the rotation lockable?
A: No, the rotary joint stays free so you can reaim it any time without breaking the seal.
Q: What threads does it use?
A: G1/4 male on one end and G1/4 female on the other; compatible with any G1/4 water cooling port.
Q: What is the body made of?
A: Brass with a plated outer finish.
Q: Can two of them be stacked?
A: Yes; chaining two 45-degree adapters gives an offset 90-degree path with more freedom than a single 90 fitting.
