Evening, is there a place to get good quality 20mm round plastic conduit lids?

I’ve ended up using two lids on each box!
Thanks.

My dad has a hand held plumbers pipe bender.Would I be able to fit a 20mm former and guide to it to use for bends and sets etc.
Had a tricky job this afternoon. 5 metre run of 20mm flexible conduit running through stud wall then 90' bend. Really struggled getting any of my mighty rods through (splintered 2 of them)

When making a running coupler where one end of your steel conduit has a bend, so turning it to make a fixing would be impossible, it seems apparent that how ever way you do it you will be left with some thread left over on the steel...
