I have Alphacool Eiszapfen 16/10mm fittings with black Alphacool 16/10 tube / hose
Now the problem is, if I install the tube onto the fitting and then secure the lockring, if I pull a bit (not even that hard) onto the hose, I can just pull the hose off
The fitting is just 2 pieces: barb and lockring: https://shop.alphacool.com/media/image/83/57/aa/1011164_4YHaS4so0LG4L1..jpg
Other types of fittings (like Alphacool HF) seem to come with a metal locking washer that will actually bite into the tube when you secure the lock-ring making it absolutely impossible for the tube to come loose, but these Eiszapfen don't seem to come with that? The brass part here : https://shop.alphacool.com/media/image/57/7d/1c/1023255_4_200x200@2x..jpg
What am I doing wrong here? I don't trust it like this...
