Just wondering who the OEM of Bitspower barbs and fittings (45's, ect) is. I want the barbs before they are chrome plated and laser inscribed by BP. Anyone know?

Vincent has them machined in China, IIRC.
Feel free to ask Vincent, though don't be disappointed/upset if he doesn't respond.
If I was Vincent, I wouldn't divulge where I make anything. Not good business.

I'm moving this thread to BitsPower Q&A.

Those were just the barbs that came with the HWlabs rad. Nothing special. The rest of the stuff came from ncix/ppcs/frozencpu

I would assume that HWlabs is simply awesome enough to include quality fittings with their quality rads.
The Feser fittings are rebranded bitspower ripoffs - that's a discussion in itself.

I have a pair of feser compression fittings. If they tried to rip off BP, they failed miserably. LOL
There isn't even a barb. It's more like just a step that is almost imposssible to get the hose onto. I forgot where I chucked them or I'd take a pic. They suck.
The watercooling world would suck without BP and all their awesome fittings.

coming from a hardware retailer point of view here in the Philippines, made in taiwan is better than made in china...
some people know this, some just don't want to admit it...

i like how easy the barbs can be easily removed, using the right clamps they're stay there good but not as good as compression :)
compression fittings are better, but i prefer my true silver barbs and black sparkle barbs :D
