  • Watch me in fpv routing this gas pipe from the kitchen area into the loft for a boiler.
    Was time to use my new pipe benders for 22mm copper and I have to say I love them.
    I’ve used the 15mm version of these monuments and always wanted the 22 so I pushed the button and glad I did!
    I use a bending pipe formula to work out the set by x my measurement by 1.4 and bending at them two points at the start of the bender former.
    This is a very helpful method for getting accurate pipe sets!
    Enjoy the asmr and fpv footage, please like, subscribe and comment down below as I will try to answer any questions!

    Great to see a Plumber taking pride in their work. I prefer working with “hard drawn” copper tube over “annealed” copper tube, especially when it’s going to be seen.
    In Australia we are forbidden to use soft soldered joints on gas lines. It has to be either silver brazed or the use of flared compression fittings.
    I’m surprised you don’t use tube expanders to join the copper tube instead of sockets.
    Anyway great workmanship and video 👍

    What is the reason for bending the copper pipe if you’re soldering the pipe at other points? Is there a reason not to use soldered 45s, 60s, 90s etc?

    • @lukaszskor5973
      @lukaszskor5973 2 месяца назад

      Straight coupling, soldered or not, does not add much friction for the water travelling in the pipe. Bending the same. But if you put a couple of elbows there, you suddenly creating friction equivalent of many more meters in length. Friction altimately causes damages. Besides, if you live in a s/hole like me, Hull, with max 2.5bar mains pressure...you really want to bend😂😂

      When I started my Apprenticeship in the early 70’s it was all copper tube. 6M lengths & minimum fittings used, everything bent. Doing Bungalows, a 6M run up to the Header Tank all in one go!! You got your arse kicked, literally, by the Boss if you used fittings!! The tight old bastard was ex POW from WW2, Glaswegian & as tough as nails!! God knows the horrors he must’ve seen in the War years. So drinking was his main hobby & pissed, any course Cowboy these days, couldn’t lace his boots........He was an artisan, pissed or not!
      Learning from him was amazing, he was so skilled.
      He showed me the Constant Multiplier for bending copper tube, lots of Tripod machines, but we used the ‘new’ Handibender.
      It’s simple trigonometry;
      10° bends offset size x 6
      22° bends x 2.6
      30° x 2
      45° x 1.4
      60° x 1.2
      So measure your offset Centre to Centre, multiply it by the Multiplier & that’s the distance between the two marks on your tube. Bend it to the required angle.
      It’s not too critical where your marks sit in the former, as long as you use the same location in the former for both bends.
      Nothing new in the Plumbing & Heating game!!
      Luv Dick Puller❤

    Use steel pipe, no galvanized pipe either.
    Do no attempt to use copper or galvanized pipe for gas. It's a great way to have an explosion. A building inspector will not allow it. Be smart, hire a certified plumber to make any gas repairs.
