Will it bend or twist with heavy weight?

Many pool leaf rakes tend to bend, twist or break when pulling up a large bag of heavy, wet leaves. Sometimes this is due to a weak frame - either it is all plastic or the aluminum frame is too thin. Other times it is due to a weak handle attachment to the telescopic pole. In the case of the ProTuff Tiger Claw model, none of these issues should be a concern. Not only do we use a heavy gauge aluminum alloy frame, but the unique handle design makes it nearly impossible for the frame or handle to bend in any way, even with significant heavy loads in the bag. For instance, you'll see in one of our product images that our pool leaf rake is able to hold a 14 pound bowling ball with NO bending or twisting. It's not often that you're going to rake up over 14 pounds of debris from the bottom of your pool. So, the short answer is, no, it will not bend or twist with heavy weight in the bag. This is a professional duty swimming pool cleaning tool.

You have to bend it and than twist it inward. There are some great youtube videos about it. I use it off and on. You have to be consistent with it but it works well.

It will not bend easily. It's made of (I think) composite cardboard. It's very hard and inflexible.

No its a twist and snap, very sturdy and the weight capasity is 500lbs, hope this helps.

No, it does not bend unfortunately. It is really sturdy but only good if you need a straight pole. I couldn't use it for my tent.

I can't answer that. Once the mattress attains it's full shape, it is over a foot thick with innersprings. It is very heavy and I don't think it would bend.

I have mine the same shape as it is in the picture. I think it would stay but I'm not 100% sure if it would bend that way. You might wanna ask the seller. Sorry I'm not any help!

I have no experience attempting to bend it, but I imagine that you could bend it. It wouldn't be easy to bend and it would be even less easy to unbend.

No. It is shaped into an "L". You can extended the ends but the bend will never change

It is very small and lightweight, but very strong. Yes it can be bent by hand

Yes up to about half inch, I think it will bend thicker pieces with a longer lever arm, but I haven't tried that yet.

I think it is highly unlikely that it will bend. It is a fairly heavy gauge metal.

Sorry to say, I probably won't try it. While it could hold it, I think, It probably won't be too stable and It couldn't hold much else without bending.

no bending, though the shoulders, wrists and neck do rotate, everything is solid and stiff. however, I am not sure if different arms can be purchased and attached to achieve a bend ( hands on hips etc. )

That depends on how thick it is. I've casted stuff about 1/2in+ and it's been pretty solid but stuff about 1/4 or less will bend.

Wish I could help you. I only used mine for curves. It seems thin enough to bend though.

No. It's too uncomfortable for bending...you definitely won't like the stiff feeling.
