15mm pipe spring

I have an internal spring. Hardly ever use it.

It was handy a few weeks back when I bent a pipe that was in situ. Therefore I couldn't have got my benders on to it. With an external spring it wouldn't have been possible.

Therefore I suggest you buy some good quality Hilmore benders, and a cheap £2 internal spring from Toolstation.

i bought a pipe bender from b and q,, but i reckon it bends the pipe side ways a little.. i only use it for diy purpose's,, so i its not to much of a problem, but do hilmore bend pipe with out any twists?

I've never had any problem with my hilmors bending out of true, I'm on my third set in 30 years.

if you need to put a slight bend on an exsisting pipe then the external spring may help, i had one years ago and it worked fine aslong as you did not try to go to far with it.
