Gooseneck (fixture)
A gooseneck is a semi-rigid, flexible joining element made from a coiled metal hose. Similar to its natural counterpart, it can be bent in almost any direction and remain in that position. Areas of application for goosenecks are movable brackets for lights, magnifying glasses, microphones and other devices. The hollow shape of the gooseneck allows electrical cables or fiber-optic cables to be accommodated inside, for example.
