Slanted

[JRD]

We noticed that the pole lights delivered were slanted slightly; the stem was not straight, slanted outward by 50mm.

Is the above sentence grammatically sound and natural?

Thank you.

Thank you.

In that context I would use "bent" rather than "slanted", which has a greater indication of damage.

It's not a winner to me.
