90 degree elbow for hose

Hi everyone. I am looking for a 90 degree elbow for the hose connection. My hose feeds up through the bottom of the convenience center to the water inlet. It tends to crease there, decreasing my water pressure. The only 90 degree fitting I could find was a quick disconnect, which would be great, but it has a restrictor. T
My water pressure regulator, plus the elbow restrictor, plus the backflow restrictor also drops the pressure too much.

Can the restrictor be removed from the elbow? I wonder if the opening diameter would also be an issue.

How does everyone else deal with this issue?

I’m sure you can get one at your local big box hardware store too.

^^^ What they suggested....

I've got 4 or 5 of them in the trailer. They're great to prevent kinks in the hose to/from the filter, hanging on the side of the trailer city water hose and even in some campgrounds, on the supply faucet to the regulator to get it up and out of the grass.

I've got a couple of them. Looks like they are cast pot metal. I read somewhere that they fail pretty easily. So, right now I'm using a short section of water hose that comes with the cheap $15 blue water filters. It's spiral wrapped with steel to prevent kinking. Working so far.
I tell myself I am going to put together one from stainless steel fittings at the hardware store.

Thanks everyone. It looks like the Camco is a great price and low lead certified. Others on Amazon don't say anything about low lead. I wonder how big of a concern that is.

Lead is a concern, especially with kids.
