Thanks for the tips and info, people. Little spark it seems your correct they only come in 10m packs by the looks of it, looks like there will be a couple of boxes along the way

It is generally available in 10m lengths because its not normally suitable for long runs, that's where normal conduit would be used.
What is the application which requires a 50m flexible conduit?

Please enlighten us why you are installing an earthing conductor in 40/50 mtrs of copex? is this to be buried alongside a SWA sub-distribution cable?

As above, the vac and string can work well.
Also, if you have a mig welder, use it to feed the wire down conduit ( welding wire acts as a good draw wire) make sure you bend the end over before feeding it down and do it with the conduit in a straight line.

We regularly put twisted pairs, fibers etc through 30+meters of copex as protection for cables run below computer floors. Best way is to lay the copex out straight and use a small cobra to feed through the copex. Shaking the copex helps. Then install the whole lot as one system.

Do the spitting cobras get hissed off when they get stuffed in the coped ?

Is it just me? I’m pretty new to this game and have seen Kopex promoted by lots of vlogging sparks, being used all over the place particularly in sheds and the like. Appreciate its ease of use which is the main plus but I do think it looks a bit tacky

It's ok in it's place , like cars and plant ect , but I agree with you , not nice where it has to be pretty.
