Why does carflex come in big rolls?

So someone can do this:

What a beaut...

I've seen it plenty of times done down the side of a bin or tower

I'd pour at least another gallon of asphalt onto that penetration. Let's be professional now.

That had to be horrible to pull wire through.

Carflex is difficult even when it's only 6' and gets a curl in it.

There is workmanship and then there is not. Your pic was not. They got what they paid for. If not shame on them. Surprised they didn't use Smurf pipe.

Looks to be lacking in strain relief 🫪

I didn't go through the roof, but about three weeks ago I ran about 75' of sealtite across a commercial roof for a kitchen exhaust fan. It's supposed to be temporary while the roof gets replaced but if the roofers don't get it together and get finished pretty soon, I might forget about it and my temporary fix might become permanent.

That actually crossed my mind. Maybe it was supposed to be temporary for some reason and was never addressed? But the tar or whatever it is used to seal it? That's just terrible on a rubber roof. Makes me think it wasn't temporary or done by someone with a clue.
