Can the 8mm threaded rod be bent very easily?


Yes, if you have access to a blacksmith's forge or maybe an Oxy-acetylene
torch

A good mapp or even propane torch can handle bending 8mm mild steel
allthread with no problem. It can even be bent cold as long as the
radius is not too tight and it isn't made in China
