Comes in a 6’ length at the longest. The last time I bought some I used .049” wall, the .035” wall kinks easily white bending.

Also 1/2” .049” wall stainless steel tubing should be available in 20’ lengths. I used to work with this at one of my old jobs building semiconductor processing equipment (high-vacuum thin-film sputtering and electron beam coating systems) and man that .049” wall tubing sure wasn’t easy to bend.
