Adapter straight Barrow TB2D-MINI01 s G1/4" male to G1/4" male 5 mm silver

Barrow TB2D-MINI01 s is a straight metal adapter with G1/4" male threads on both ends and a fixed 5 mm center offset, finished in silver. It is designed for liquid-cooling and PC water-cooling assemblies to connect two G1/4" threaded components while introducing a precise 5 mm spacing. The compact form factor and durable metal construction make it suitable for routing fittings in tight spaces and for custom loop builds where accurate alignment is required.

Advantages

The adapter provides a reliable metal-to-metal connection between two G1/4" fittings while keeping a consistent 5 mm offset, enabling precise component placement in confined areas. Its straight design simplifies inline connections without changing flow direction and the silver finish offers corrosion resistance and a neutral aesthetic that integrates with a variety of cooling components. The small size reduces clutter inside a chassis and helps maintain clean tube or fitting runs.

Suitable for

• Custom PC water-cooling loops requiring a 5 mm spacing between fittings
• Compact builds and small form factor cases with limited clearance
• Connecting radiators, pumps, reservoirs or blocks with G1/4" threads
• Precise routing when slight offsets are needed without changing flow direction

Key specifications

• Thread type: G1/4" male on both ends
• Offset/center spacing: 5 mm
• Shape: Straight adapter
• Finish/color: Silver
• Material: Metal construction suitable for liquid-cooling use

How to use

Install the adapter by threading each male end into the corresponding G1/4" female fitting on components such as radiators, pumps, reservoirs or water blocks. Ensure threads are aligned and hand-tighten before final adjustment to avoid cross-threading; use appropriate tools for a snug fit without overtightening. Confirm that the 5 mm offset achieves the desired alignment and that connected tubing or fittings have sufficient clearance. After installation, pressure-test the loop according to standard liquid-cooling procedures to check for leaks.

Usage recommendations

Before installation, inspect mating threads for debris or damage. Use suitable thread sealant or washers where recommended for your fittings, and avoid excessive torque to prevent thread deformation. When routing in confined spaces, plan the fitting sequence to maintain access for maintenance and leak testing.
