Review on Flexible 8/10/12mm Soft Silicone Bending Insert: Ideal for Shaping Acrylic Rigid Tubing Repair (10mm) - A Must-Have Accessory by Will Rahman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

However, it is a tight fit.

This silicone is perfect for my petg probes. He did an excellent job of preserving the internal structure of the pipes. I seriously can't believe how neat the curves were! While the fit was perfect and the curves so beautiful, there is a catch. A mixture of soap and water must be used to remove silicone easily. Even with soap and water, it's almost impossible to pull the silicone out of a bend greater than 90°. I tried making a 130° bend but couldn't get the silicone out (so the tubing was cut off to get the silicone out). The silicone itself is sticky, so keep in mind that the use of soap and water is necessary to get the silicone out of the tube more smoothly. Other than those few things, the product itself is great and you could see the results I got from using it speak for themselves!
