How Electricians Bend 90 Degrees on 1-1/4” EMT Conduit💪, it’s not Easy😨 #electrician

What happens here

After achieving a 45-degree bend, the instructor advises the demonstrator to maintain his weight on the bender. To complete the 90-degree bend, the technique involves repositioning the bender so the handle is straight up again, with the conduit now partially bent. Then, continue applying body weight, pulling the handle towards the ground, effectively pushing the conduit further into the desired 90-degree bend. The demonstrator successfully executes this maneuver, completing the 90-degree bend, marking his first manual 90-degree bend on a 1 1/4 inch conduit.

Goal: Achieve a complete 90-degree bend.

Tools and materials

  • 1 1/4 inch Conduit Pipe — The pipe being bent

All right. Nice. Now you've gotten about a 45 degree. You're about halfway there. Want to tie your shoe? Yeah. Yeah. If you look at this, you get to this point. Set it up there. Always want to maintain your weight. Do you recommend like going like low like that on an angle like that? Yeah. Just like that. Straight. That's it. That's it. That's it. Got it there. A little bit more. A little bit more. That's it, man. That was my first 90 ever.
