Can it handle 2 45 degree bends?

We have an 8 inch chimney. The cleaning system is inserted very close to the ground, so it is bent close to a 100 or 120 degree angle, and it handles this quite well. There are 2 of us doing the cleaning. One feeding the cleaner quickly up the chimney, so the bend isn't held in one spot more than a second. But this is only one bend. Don't know if it will handle 2 bends.

In haven't tried more than one relatively sharp bend but you could ask them at Gardus. http://gardusinc.com/ you can call them or email them. Look under "contact us" in the black bar.

I don't think so...but not sure about that. I only have one but it doesn't seem probable.

Not quite sure how to answer except it can be used at 45 degrees with the appropriate pulley (s) in place.

Yes but they do bend. If you need something perfectly straight, this may not be the answer for you.

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

I had it bent around a 3" radius and I believe it can go a little more than that.

I used it for a filler hose on my boat,it went through a 90 degree bend with no problems.

hi... I think you mean 'maximum' bend... I just bought a 3/4" by 75' piece of CSST... from what I can tell, the maximum is a 34" diameter... hope that helps...

No, this is a heavy duty piece of PVC. You may be able to apply heat and bend it, but I never tried that myself.

Absolutely NOT! Mine measures a maximum of 45" adjusted all the way out - and that is assuming it can form a complete round circle - which it may not be able to do depending on what is stored within.

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.

If you don't mind using players to bend it, it should work. Although it is designed to hang on wire, there is an inch between the bends, so you should be able to make a 90 degree angle with one of them without too much difficulty.

I wouldn't think so, since it is used from a sitting position. If you have trouble bending over it could be a bit of a problem.

Yours may be defective. Or you may be expecting too much bend. I don't even think of it as bending, but rather as being flexible. You're not going to get a 45 degree angle if that's what you need. I just looked at mine, and the most I get is about 10 or15 degrees from vertical before it just picks up off the floor. It's more a matter of better traction because you have three contact points instead of just one and a little "play" to keep you steadier. I don't know if that makes any sense at all. I still love mine. I thought I would change back to the ordinary tip for summer, but I haven't. This one adds just a snudge more security.

I would think so. It has good pressure all across and holds close to the bend. I think you would be good with this.

It does bend. Not sure it would work for you but it might. Sorry, I can't be more help.

Yes, within reason. The connection joint between each segment can pivot so you can bend a mild curve. For instance, it'll bend enough to go around a 24' round swimming pool. I've got nearly 50', most of which is moderately curved.

i think it can have bends but you should call Basepump because they have a great customer service function and they can answer all your technical questions.
