Home -> RV-9 and RV-9A topic: Bending springs

Author: "Carlos Trigo" <trigo@...> Time: Fri Mar 5, 2004 7:01 am PST Link

I've heard and read that for bending the fuel aluminium tube
lines, "bending springs" are essential. Three questions:
- do the springs work inside or outside the tubes to bend ?
- are the springs the same that are used by house electricians to
bend plastic electrical sleeve tubes ?
- who sells the bending springs ?

Thanks

#1 - The springs slip over the outside of the tube
to be bent. The pack that I bought had 3 or 4 different
sized springs.

#2 - Sorry, I have no clue.

#3 - Home Depot, in the plumbing department, or check
a plumbing supply store.
