It is constructed by plumbing a Tee connector tri barbed, with a perpendicular secondary flow pattern, shaped like the letter T into an existing tube thus creating an alternate flow path. However, instead of routing the secondary path back into the system flow, it is simply left open or closed off using an end barb or other capping device. The tube itself thus can act as a mini reservoir and allows air bubbles to travel into it as they are caught into the Tee connector, and ultimately travel out of the system bleeding . A common use for a T Line is in a watercooling system such as those found in enthusiast PCs. The T Line is an integral part of a do it yourself watercooling system alongside the traditional choice of a reservoir. Major reasons for choosing a T Line over a standard reservoir are cost, simplicity, and space constraints. Fill Ports example The fillport by DangerDen are specifically made with T Lines in mind, and serve the purpose of capping the T line in an air tight and re openable re sealable fashion.
