A bubbler base or base body for accepting a bubbler tube that has an externally threaded section at one end of the bubbler tube. The bubbler base of this invention can be used to quickly attach the bubbler base already connected to a bubbler tube, without the need to form an internally threaded bore within a bottom clamp plate which is also referred to as a cooling plate and is conventionally known in the molding tool industry. A conventional bubbler tube can be attached to the bubbler base rather than to the bottom clamp plate or the cooling plate. The bubbler base can have an overall spool shape. An O-ring can be used to seal the bubbler base with respect to the bottom clamp plate or the cooling plate.
