 |
A pipe bending spring is a strong, flexible spring that is inserted into (or over) a pipe to support the walls of the pipe when manually bending. | |||
What are the different parts? |
||||
 |
A pipe bending spring doesn’t have parts as such, but it does typically have some features worth noting. | |||
 |
Ring endMost models of internal pipe bending spring will have a ring on one end so that a piece of wire or string can be attached to it. This makes retrieving the spring after each use much easier. |

 |
Tapered end – InternalThe tapered end of an internal bending spring is slightly thinner, allowing you to feed it into the pipe with ease. |
|||
 |
Tapered end – ExternalOn an external bending spring, the tapered end is wider making it easier for you to insert the pipe inside. (Note that you don’t need a ring end on an external pipe bending spring) |
