00160913 Bosch Pipe Connection Piece

Genuine OEM Bosch 00160913 Pipe Connection Piece (also known as a water line connector, Lokring reducing coupling, or pipe fitting) is a precision-engineered replacement part designed for Bosch, Thermador, and Gaggenau refrigerators and freezers. This brass fitting connects water supply lines to the appliance’s internal systems, ensuring reliable flow for ice makers, water dispensers, and filtration systems. A damaged or leaking pipe connection piece can cause water leaks, reduced pressure, no ice production, dispenser malfunctions, or water damage to flooring and cabinetry.

Manufactured by BSH Home Appliances, this OEM part (Lokring reducing coupling 5/1.8mm brass) meets strict factory specifications for leak-proof performance, pressure resistance, and durability. It is constructed from high-quality brass resistant to corrosion, mineral buildup, and the temperature/pressure variations in refrigeration water systems. It serves as a direct replacement that restores proper water delivery without modifications.

Key Benefits and Features:

• Secure, Leak-Resistant Connection: Provides a reliable seal for water lines, preventing drips and maintaining consistent flow to ice makers and dispensers.
• Broad Compatibility: Fits a wide range of Bosch, Thermador, and Gaggenau refrigerator models, including popular series like B22CS (e.g., B22CS50SNS/01 and similar counter-depth units).
• Durable Brass Construction: Withstands long-term exposure to water and system pressures, offering superior longevity compared to generic plastic or lower-grade fittings.
• Easy Installation: Most DIY users can replace this fitting with basic tools (tubing cutters, wrenches) after shutting off the water supply. It typically involves disconnecting old lines and securing the new connector—always follow model-specific instructions to avoid damaging other components.
• Common Issues It Solves: Fixes leaks at water inlet points, low or no water flow to the dispenser/ice maker, air in lines causing noisy operation, or error codes related to water supply. Replacing this small but vital part can quickly restore full functionality and prevent costly water damage or service calls.
