Ok if you need to bend 3/4"copper

Cut copper longer than you need, make wooden dowel plugs to fit and plug both ends, depending on the sizes of radius bend you need, mark about 100mm in the middle and heat with blow lamp or oxyactalene between the line until the copper goes pink hot, cool in water, plug one end and fill the other with sand loosely and plug.
Now hold pipe in both hands and pull across your knee until bend required.

Ask an electrican first before you buy. I'd say the springs get little use

For what your looking for you will only get it in an electrical wholesalers.Yes it is a 20mm bending spring.Where are you based I'm sure someone here will know the nearest wholesaler to you.

i,m in the dublin 8 area loads of hardware retailer,s and building merchant,s around me . but was all over town today and could not source what i am looking for anywhere every shop i went into told me they do not stock that size . load of b****x . if someone know where i could get this stuff great would love to know ..

DublinDilbert

If your in dublin want some 20mm plastic conduit let me know, I had buy a bale of it the last time I got some. Quite a bit if it left over. You should be able to use 20mm fittings and even use the pipe cement plumbers use.

I would try bend it 90 degrees, I'd use 90 degree slip bends from the wholesaler...

airsoftone

great stuff man . would love to get some off you . will pm you my number .. cheers
