do I need to buy 90 degree elbows because it might kink when going around a tight bend?

Yes. It can make large radius turns, but tight 90 degree turns work best with an elbow.

If you are needing to make the turn in less than a 2 foot radius, I would put in an elbow. I've had to dig up several and do just that on my 5000' of drip line.

45 degrees right and left. If you need more of an angle and are mechanistically inclined you can move the support arms closer together. The arms are the thing that limits the angle. If you move the arms that attach to the wall closer together you will get maybe 55 60 degrees. Only try this if you are confortable with supporting heavy objects.

Mary; If you have a 90 degree corner you will need to cut Easy Caulk at a 45 degree angle with a razor blade or scissors. Make sure to cut at least 1/8" extra to avoid any gaps in the joint. If you have any additional questions feel free to contact us directly and we will assist you. Greg @ Cornerflex.

I have, because I tightened it too tight. Just snug it up, and you'll be ok.

The end with the camera is rigid and about 2.5 inches on non-flexibility. I doubt it would make a clean 90deg elbow turn in anything smaller than 2" dia. If you are lucky it might make a 1.5" dia. but I think it would be more pure luck and you might not be able to extract it later very easily.

I have only used it for drainage pipes of 4'' or bigger, never had a problem with elbows or T. Going straight in... It does get a little harder to push in when you are past a certain distance... Overall is great for the price, good enough for me that i only use it a few times a year.

It's flexible enough to be bend 90° or more, however it seems to me that less than 60-70° would not permanently damage it.

Bending into a 90 degree angle is not the appropriate fix. Another comment by Nick Thomas is more correct. There should be an alternative mounting plate that came with the mount. You simply re-configure the base of the 18" flex gooseneck so that it has the vertical compatible bracket on it. If you're missing this item, email feedback@arkon.com and they'll help you out.

That's a awesome question lol. I think you may be bent over to much causing your elbows to dig through the pads which aren't toThick. They are inexpensive enough to try in my opinion. Just make sure you have room on your bars.

If you have headers the 90 degree boots are what you have to use or they will ride on the header pipes. So yeah they work just fine.

maybe a little. it is aluminium. you couldn't bend it 90 deg. it would kink

You could with arms straight, and elbows locked. May be hard to prevent swinging. If you rested on your elbows with arm in 90 degree position, you would likely hurt elbow/lower arms.

I would say B. It isn't really flexible and I needed to buy some 90 deg. joints to get the needed flexibility.

In a word, yes. Just remember your setup to see if the 90 degree angle will fit.

yes that is what it means but i cant see that it will bend that tight without some special tool to make it come out perfect. there is way too much chance to kink this trying to bend it that tight.

I would think so. It has a lot of adjustment to the height. I am 5' 10I would think so, I am 5'10" and I can adjust it to go at least 5 more inches. Depends on how much you want your arms to bend while you arewalking with it. I doubt you would want to keep your arms straight at the elbows.

Don't need too but it will be helpful to avoid little discomfort I used mine as soon as I got it but kinda wish I let it straighten out for a couple of days.
