Good to hear that we finally have a larger pool of users taking advice from this thread.
With a larger sample size we can finally begin to take some data on the true integrity of this Duralene tubing.


My 1/2x3/4" still has not clouded so, hope the rest of you have the same results.

+1 rep for all the color reviews, was just reading the most peculiar thing about Mayhem's products though....
bleh just another flamer on the RR forums probably.

in certain point you are right but the question is. How long and how often you will need this sys scrubber running in the loop? and how good or bad is this sys scrubber?if this stuff can eat the the stuff inside the tubing and eat a bit of the tubing color how good or bad it will be for the pump? pump is plastic inside at least have some plastic?
I haven't stated it before because I did forgot to mention. Lazyman has build a water cooling flush loop to flush all the loop hardware. I have got my own parts and made a very similar Flush system like the one he showed in he's YouTube channel How To Efficiently Flush A Rad. I will repost it because I know a lot people has missed it.
A two weeks ago i had flushed one big entire system that was running Distilled Water + PT Nuke + Red Dye ( i don't know the Dye Brand ). After the system has been cleaned all the water in a bucket turn out dark pink because the Red Dye that the Owner has used in the past i assume about 8 months ago. Four months with Red Dye and 4 Months with Clear water and the System had a clear water inside the date I received it to do my work. For the past 15 minutes i was watching it very closely but after that I did left it running for about a hour. When i got back to check it out I saw the water all pink Two ( 2 ) gallon of Distilled water + One table spoon of vinegar was completely PINK. Even when you do a normal flush you do think is all clean but the hardware still have some colored stuff stuck in some point inside the loop maybe not in the hardware but in the Tubing. If you just get rid of the dye and run clear water + any Biocides.The residue of the DYE stays there a bit because i saw it when I flushed the system. The loop water plus this big filter catch’s everything. I whish I had take the photos but unfortunally My phone was broken and wife had the camera that day so too bad. But here we go this is what I use to flush my All the RiG’s with Water Loop.
This is the DIY Water Cooler Flush System ( not my invention but it is WestCoastMods By LazyMan Invention.

I'm back again.This tubing was added on June 23 / 2012 post #863 35 Days with Mayhems Red Dye + Distilled Water.Again today is the Dust clean day BHD and Wife's PC down for Dust clean.

Ok now,take a good look in all those pictures because i just found something very strange in this Durelene tubing and i will explain a bit what i think it is and how its occur during the processes.

  • First Test :
    Durelene used in the Plasticizer Test Bench for 35 Days with Mayhems Red Dye + Distilled Water
    Durelene below Virgin Tubing


    B]Durelene[/B] used in the Plasticizer Test Bench


    Durelene below Virgin Tubing


    Here you can see very clear that It had clouded. But don't judge it yet keep looking below


    LOL and here you cannot tell which tube is used or virgin thumb.gif very ODD thinking.gif
    the Top Tubing Durelene is the tubing used on Plasticizer Test Bench but if you take a good looking you will see that is has water inside ( ODD right ) "WTH" How far Durelene can cloud?


    Now look this picture posted by Martinm210 post #755 16 months with Filtered tap water and PTnuke and Duralene.
    It does looks the same as Martinm210 posted gosh this is very ODD.

    Now both Durelene tubing filled with water.Used and Virgin tubing. Can you see any difference?






    Yellow cap : Durelene Virgin | White Cap : Used Durelene for 35 Day 24/7 Distilled Water + Mayhems Red Dye
























    Top tubing White Cap : Durelene Used for 35 Day 24/7 Distilled Water + Mayhems Red Dye


    Right : Virgin Durelene | Left : Used Durelene


    Right : Used Durelene | Left : Virgin Durelene


    Top : Used Durelene | Bottom : Virgin Durelene


  • As you can see Durelene had cloud up a bit and we all know the Durelene is not Plasticizer free.But for 35 days running 24/7 this is good result. and looks like it won't cloud far more ,Post mentioned above . 16months with Filtered tap water and PTnuke and Duralene. post #755 and very ODD when tubing is wet ( I mean water inside it won't show any cloud in the tubing only if you get a virgin tubing and put it side by side. My Distilled Water + Mayhems Red Dye had never changed its color while it was running.
  • I may not be 100% right but a none free plasticizer tubing cloud bad because of the cloud stuff buildup inside that's were the DYE stain it so bad. But looks like this is no the Mayhems Dye thumb.gif. Durelene had clouded but not stained by Mayhems Dye.
  • Durelene has resisted cold and heat for the cheap price its not bad at all. This is how it looks like after I had cut the tubing in half and cleaned it with my finger. It come out very easy. I had to rotate the camera view angle for in all my shots to make sure the light reflection won't messed up my pics so no doubt. you know what is the wiped clear tubing below thumb.gif





















    Thank for all you guys support. I will continue all my tests for more several months and i will try to keep this thread update as much as I can.

    PS: sorry for the Lego and Dinosaurs Books LOL my son kevin "my 7 old" was helping me biggrin.gif

Call me crazy, and it's possible that this monitor at work is horribly calibrated, but to me it looks BETTER than it does new as it no longer has the strange greenish tint that the virgin tubing has. If so, holy crap because that would mean tubing that looks better the longer you use it, which is unheard of.

Glad i wasn't the only one that saw that.. the text was easier for me to read through the used tubing than the new..

My XSPC Raystorm kit is arriving on Thursday with 1/2" ID, 3/4" OD Duralene tubing from Sidewinder Computers. It comes with both a killcoil and Petra's Tech PT Nuke Biocide.

I have a somewhat unique situation in that I'll be using very pure water. Supposedly equivalent to "triple distilled water" or so the guy who sold me the purifier said. It uses a resin technology typically only used in commercial applications. TDS meter shows 0 on the water. Ohmeter barely moves when tested for conductivity, as opposed to tap water which conducts very well.

So, I'll be installing Duralene tubing with some pure water in it. Does anyone have any requests on what I can do to help this testing effort?

When I was researching the water purifier I have, this pure water is supposedly very corrosive. I'm nervous about putting it in my WC loop: will it eat at the metal in the loop?
