Used with 10/12mm PETG rigid tubing

Fits and works well. If you are building your first rigid hose loop, do yourself a favor and buy at least 2 of these. Man, it's so hard to work on the pipe after you've made your first bend. For example, I started with a 90 degree bend, which was very easy. Then when I had to bend the hose again, the weight of the silicone hose hanging around made it incredibly difficult and annoying. Its weight throws the balance off balance, and if you're like me you're going to ruin a lot of things. If you…

Pros
  • Good workmanship
Cons
  • Reliable

Excellent addition to the inner workings

If you are using Bitspower 12mm OD PETG tubing, do not use anything other than this. So buy it for your next build unless you enjoy pulling on the pipe after making a bend. But best of all, you can put it back into a 90 degree bend by twisting the soft inner tube a little.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • No

Purchased for use with XSPC 10mm ID PETG tubing. MUCH higher quality than the insert included in the XSPC bend kit. This insert appears to be thicker silicone than the kit above. I used very little soapy water to wet the insert on all of my bends and even pipes with a few bends resolved the insert perfectly. I have found that twisting the open end of the liner tears the liner off the inside wall of the tube, making removal much easier. The fit of this liner on the XSPC pipe was actually better…

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Fast OK

Worked as expected with Bitspower brand PETG tubing

Bought one of these to bend tubing for my first experience with refrigeration circuits. I have used this with Bitspower brand PETG tubing so I had no problem fitting the silicone tubing into the PETG tubing. I had no problems with this tool even after inserting/removing it after a few bends. I washed the tool liberally with soapy water before inserting it, which definitely helped when removing it later. It performed as expected and maintained my tube diameter even on tight bends. A must if you…

Pros
  • Positive only
Cons
  • Upgradeable
