6 mm glass U-bend

This glass U-bend is aimed at aquarists who run external hoses over the edge of a tank and need a clean, fixed route for tubing. It replaces improvised bends in the hose and gives the line a consistent drop point at the rim of the aquarium.

Why it matters

• Hangs on the tank rim: the elbow is mounted by hooking it over the edge of the aquarium glass, so no separate bracket or adhesive is needed.
• Wall thickness limit: it fits rims up to 10 mm thick, which covers typical aquarium glass edges.
• 6 mm tubing size: the U-bend is sized for 6 mm hose, matching the line it is meant to guide.
• Glass construction: the fitting is made of glass, a rigid material that holds its shape in the bend once positioned.

What it works with

The fitting belongs to the hydraulics group of aquarium filtration, pump and aeration equipment, so it is intended for tanks where hoses leave the water through the top edge. It suits 6 mm tubing runs from filters, pumps or water-change lines, and it fits aquariums whose rim thickness does not exceed 10 mm.
