What To Look For In a Conduit Bender

There are many conduit benders on the market for sale. Some metal bending tools advertise their versatility, while others claim their tool is very lightweight for traveling to jobsites. All of these things can be important, but the most vital asset of the conduit bender is its accuracy and durability. Look for one that can perform rapid, yet accurate 90-degree bends. Also, make sure the metal bending tool is durable, able to handle EMT, IMC, and Rigid conduit. Although there are very lightweight models on the market, some of those are less likely to hold up to the tough task of bending miles of conduit for various jobs.
