Rigid bendable tubing?

I need bendable tubing that can hold its shape, but I don’t know what it is called – so all my searches are futile. What I need is a flexible tube that can be about 30 inches long and hold about 3 pounds horizontal. I have seen similar products used in lights that can be shaped into any position. They look like metal conduit tube, but can bend indefinitely and hold the position they are put into.

Type L of type K copper should do the trick for you it is sold by the foot hardware stores fleet farm Menard’s etc.
