Conduit Bending is a conduit bending calculator for electricians: 17 bend calculators for offsets, rolling offsets, 3-point and 4-point saddles, 90° bends and corners, with your bender's numbers built in. Pick your bender, enter the measurements, and get the marks for the bend. No bending chart, no working it out on the back of a box. Switch between imperial (inches) and metric (cm) at any time. OFFSET BENDS • Offset: Basic • Offset: 1st Bend Critical • Offset: 2nd Bend Critical • Offset: Parallel Adjustment for parallel runs ROLLING OFFSET CALCULATOR • Rolled Offset: Basic • Rolled Offset: 1st Bend Critical • Rolled Offset: 2nd Bend Critical SADDLE BENDS • 3-Point Saddle: Basic and Critical distance • 4-Point Saddle: Basic and Critical distance 90° BENDS • 90°: Basic • Back to Back 90° • Kicked 90° CORNERS • Corner around a square obstacle • Corner around a rectangular obstacle • Corner around a round obstacle BENDERS AND UNITS • Choose from more than 30 predefined hand, Chicago, electric and hydraulic benders • EMT, IMC, rigid (RMC) and PVC conduit, from 1/2" to 5" • Work in inches or centimeters • A built-in calculator that handles fractions and converts between cm and inches, from the makers of Calculator+ Whether you bend conduit every day or are learning how to bend conduit, Conduit Bending puts every bend in one pipe bending calculator on your iPhone.

ConduitWorker
This app calculates precise conduit bending marks for electricians, handling mixed-size parallel offsets and standard bends. It offers a digital level, conduit fill checks, and a bender library for accurate installations.
- Multi-size parallel offset calculation
- Standard offset bends (10°-60°)
- 3-point and 4-point saddle bends
- 90° stub-up with deduct values
- Kicked 90° bends
- Conduit fill check (NEC Chapter 9)
- Digital level for live angle reading

No other bend calculator handles mixed-size parallel offsets. Run 1/2" and 3/4" EMT through the same offset — ConduitWorker computes the exact mark shift for both pipes. Free download. $6.99 unlocks everything, once. Every electrician running a mixed rack knows the problem: two different conduit sizes, same offset, no app that solves it. You lay them on the floor, measure the gap by hand, and re-bend what doesn't fit. That ends here. ConduitWorker takes your two conduit sizes, your clearance, and your bend angle, then outputs the exact first-bend mark shift for the larger pipe. Both conduits stay parallel through the offset. No guessing. No re-bends. Multi-size parallel offset is built into v1 — not a future update. Mark clarity is the other fix. QuickBend's most common complaint is confusion over which mark to place first. ConduitWorker labels every result: MARK 1 — ARROW, MARK 2 — STAR, MARK 3 — DIAMOND. A conduit-stick diagram on every result screen shows each mark's position, color-coded and dimensioned. - Multi-size parallel offset: two conduit sizes, one run, exact marks computed - Standard offset with shrinkage: 10°, 22.5°, 30°, 45°, 60° - 3-point saddle and 4-point saddle - 90° stub-up with bender-specific deduct values - Kicked 90° - Same-size parallel offset - Bender library: Greenlee 555, Greenlee hand, Klein, Ideal, Gardner Bender — preloaded - Add your own custom bender with exact deduct values - NEW: Conduit fill check - NEC Chapter 9 fill for THHN in EMT, IMC, rigid - NEW: Digital level - lay your phone on the pipe, read the bend angle live - EMT, IMC, and rigid conduit OD reference tables - Fractional input — enter 6 3/8, not 6.375 Works offline. No account required. No ads. No tracking beyond crash and usage analytics. Three bends free. $6.99 unlocks the rest forever.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Conduit Bending at 4.8 against ConduitWorker's 3.0. Conduit Bending also leads on ratings volume (660 vs 3) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Conduit Bending sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and ConduitWorker sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Conduit Bending holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Conduit Bending has 660 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Conduit Bending ships an update every 10 days, ConduitWorker every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
