Hello peoples,
I have got a load of new compression fittings for my water cooling and ive attached all the tubes but im having a really hard time getting the compression fittings to thread. I read that you should only screw them on using hands but i cant even get the thread to bite onto the fitting, my fingers are raw from trying. Have i got the wrong size fittings or are they always this difficult? I remember my first attempt at water cooling not being much different. How important is it to screw down the fitting? If i just cable tie them off will that be ok?
Any advice will be much appreciated.
