[PSUBS-MAILIST] ss tubing supplier

[Stephen Fordyce via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi Hank,
It's very bendy - more like wire than tube (this is the seamless annealed
stuff) and you could probably bend a 3ft length in half in your hands and
still get it though a tank neck. But yeah given the tiny diameter I would
reckon even a 1ft length would be heaps, especially since you can test it
to way higher than operating pressure.

Cheers,
Steve
