Does the thin plastic tube bend?

They will bend if warmed with a heat gun. I've also used hard acrylic straws as replacement tubes. They can be bent the same way.

No. The tubing doesn't bend and I think if you tried to force it, it would break. It isn't very thin. The dripping would come from the coupling where the top meets the bottle. I don't know of a cure for that except to get it in snugly and not fill the bottle full. I think the slope of the tube is fine. I have other feeders with similar tubing and the hummers find them easily.

I never experienced that issue, but as it's plastic I'd expect you can bend it, or return it if it's faulty.

No issues with bending. I've had mine for about a year now and it hasn't changed the shape of my headset at all. There is also soft padding on it to prevent scratching of the headset too.

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

No, it will bend. The best I can describe it is like a yoga mat, if that helps

It bends, but I don't think it is meant to be consistently bent or twisted.

Yes you can bend it. It is quite pliable. Just be careful and do it slowly.

No. The end that goes into the container is hard plastic that doesn't bend.

From what I can tell, the answer is no. The metal is too rigid to bend any more.

Yes. It is fairly flexible yet strong. No problem to twist/bend so whatever you make a mold of is easier to pop out.

It does bend easy. If a kid holds on to the top horizontal bar it will bend. suggest reinforcing it by internally placing a small diameter thicker gauge pipe.

No, it is designed to bend at the 'relief' sections. This type of anode is used when there is not enough 'head-room' to put a non-flexible anode in your water heater. If you bend it back and forth several times it will break. You want to bend it back when you get to the next section so that it goes as straight as possible down into the water tank.

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

It's made of flexible clear plastic with some metallic conductors embedded in the material. I'd think that you could safely bend it in a curve, but not bend it at a sharp angle.

it is intended to bend soft copper tubing. i doubt that it would hold up bending stainless steel. much of the tubing holding parts are a hardened plastic.

Is it flexible at all? I want to bend it around a gentle curve, maybe equivalent to a 10-foot diameter circle.

I bent mine, not a sharp L but as shape as it let me about 18-20 inches from corner it starts to bend. I hope that makes sense.
