Does exist a 15mm pre-bent copper pipe section with tight (approx 15mm radius) bend

Aug 28, 2005 3 Replies

I am looking for something for a tight corner pre-bent 15mm copper pipe section, something like a street bend, but with both ends male and with longer legs. i.e. just a tightly bent tube using a bend radius of about 15mm. Does such an item exist? I don't quite have the space in this installation to use separate elbow pieces.


can you not presolder an end feed elbow with a couple of bits of pipe in, that would scarcely be fatter than 15mm tube

Sorry, I can't picture the problem, can't think of anything more compact that using 2 pieces of pipe with a soldered knuckle bend. You may get what you want by butchering a part crossover: BES code 9202

Does that help?

You can get 12 inch lengths of corrugated 15mm pipe which can be bent round very tight corners, at most DIY places.
