Dent in bend from bender

[DentySpen]

Hi all, just wondered if a dent in a 22mm is ok, came off the bender, quite a tight drop down, wenedsbury copper pipe for central heating, all running currently on between 1.5&2bar, picture attached, had not long lubed bender as it creased a 15mm, seemed ok after that, cheers

I think my eyes might need testing, as I can’t see a dent.

Cheers for reply, maybe dent is the wrong word, pushed in/malformed? Not done much with 22mm before and just went for it to replace the hideous mess that was left after someone had gone from back boiler to split to combi and left loops and dead legs all over the shop, tried to get a better pic and circled the bit that I thought suspect, would rather be paranoid than have leaky ceiling

Looks ok imo.

Many thanks, bit of reassurance goes a long way

How did you manage to do that? As above it'll probably be fine but it is definitely a weak spot. Personally I'd redo it just to avoid the embarrassment of someone seeing it & asking where the installer had tied his horse.

Don't start blaming the horse

So you reckon the Labrador then

Probably too tight to the end of the bender? Bends too close together? I’m not a plumber by trade but I’ll have a go at anything apart from Gas, my soldering if definitely better than the stuff that was in
