Stainless steel tube/pipe offcuts

[Barry]

Hey thought I'd ask this here, proving quite hard to find on google.

I'm after 3 small lengths of stainless tube, enough to make 2 whirlpool tubes and one dip tube.

Tube size, it just needs to fit into 1/2" compression fittings.

Hit me up if you have some spare or have a good source, local or otherwise. Just want the raw tube, not a pre-made fitting.

Cheers!

Make sure you get the thin-walled stuff (0.9mm) and if the STC-1000 sensor is a tight fit, just shave the sides off with a very sharp scalpel - don't take too much off though, maybe about 1mm each side max?

I can see me losing a finger with a scalpel, cheers for the help much appreciated

Hey Barry.

Where abouts did you get your compression fittings from?

[Karl Hayes]

I have a range of compression fittings that I sell. What are you after?

[Scott H]

I need to make 2x whirlpool inlet/side drains to fit into 1/2 bsp sockets or elbows if needed.

So fittings and tube needed to do that.

So 1/2" Male thread to 1/2" Compression fittings in Stainless Steel? $20 each for straight and $24 each for 90'.

[Scott H]

Keen on 3 of the straight Pls, how much for postage?

[Barry]

I don't but for what it's worth Peter's 5/8" bender worked fine for 1/2" OD pipe.

[Peter Smith]

You are welcome to try it but there is a big difference between 1/2 inch and 6mm. I would be worried if it was copper that it would collapse but the stainless seems very strong.

I have 1/4" / 6.35mm seamless tubing and a bender if required.
