Metal tube can be folded for compact stowage, is self-erecting

Metal tube configuration reduces the section modulus to that of a thin plate, thus permitting the section to be bent into a coil for stowage in limited space without destructive yielding of the material. It is readily released to serve as a rigid fluid transportation conduit or structural member.
