Hey gang,

I haven't owned a powerfeed gun since 2000... Thus I've been a little spoiled in not having to deal with plastic hopper elbows.

I remember I used to use the Armson ones, they were extremely thick and held up nicely.

Is there any particular brand now that is a little more reliable than the $1 ones on ebay?

32* has the lowest profile and best colors, but tends to crack faster.

ACI has mute colors and a high profile, but is the most durable of any I've used.


If you really wanna go fancy both Python and Palmers make aluminum elbows, but they're $50ish and have a very high profile.

I use two palmers elbows, they are 60$ and are quite strong/solid. they are all metal and dual clamping. ummm i am not sure they are worth 60$ and the build quality isnt quite as good as say a CP feedneck or a shocktech feedneck but those arent elbows.

If I were you id go with the python elbows.. since they are essenctially the same thing as the palmers elbows but are 20$ cheaper...

You can also still get Armson Pro Feed elbows from Pro Team Products. Very durable:
