About

My Bender

This app provides accurate conduit bending calculations by accounting for the unique characteristics of your specific bender. It allows you to adjust bender orientation for practical bending and calculates various complex bends like saddles and offsets with precise measurements.

Highlights
  • Accurate conduit bending calculations
  • Custom bender fingerprinting
  • Adjustable bender orientation
  • Offset and saddle bend calculations
  • Kicked 90° bend calculations
  • Track multiple benders and their characteristics

My Bender — Professional Conduit Bending Calculator Is that three-bend saddle at the end of the pipe? Wish you could flip the bender around to make the bend easier? With My Bender, you can. One of My Bender’s standout features is the ability to flip the orientation of the bender during calculations. Just tap the bender to reverse its orientation and My Bender automatically updates the measurements for practical, real-world bending. Built Around Your Bender My Bender delivers some of the most accurate conduit bending calculations on the App Store because it doesn’t rely on generic “rule of thumb” multipliers. Instead, My Bender uses the actual bending characteristics of your bender to perform calculations. Most conduit calculators use the cosecant method — an approximation that ignores centerline bending radius and pipe diameter. As bend angles and conduit sizes increase, those errors become more noticeable. My Bender is different. Every calculation is based on your bender’s measured centerline radius and real-world geometry, producing more accurate and repeatable bends. Calculate: * Offsets with predetermined conduit locations * Three-bend saddles * Four-bend saddles * Kicked 90° bends * Distance from benchmark to center of bend for any angle Designed for Real Electricians My Bender was built with practical conduit bending in mind. Unlike other apps, My Bender lets you flip the bender orientation to match the way you actually want to bend the conduit — then automatically displays the correct measurements for that orientation. The app is polished, fast, and designed to feel like a tool you’d actually want to use in the field. Keep Track of All Your Benders Every conduit bender has its own characteristics. My Bender helps you keep track of them all in one place. Add your own: * Hand Benders * Chicago Benders * 555 Benders * Cyclone Benders * Smart Benders * Table Benders My Bender Calculates Important Bender Characteristics: * Take-Up (Deduct) for 90° bends * Gain on 90° bends * Centerline bending radius How It Works Everything starts with the centerline bending radius. Simply bend one 90°, take a few key measurements, select the conduit size and material, and My Bender effectively “fingerprints” your bender for future calculations. Every measurement includes detailed descriptions and diagrams to help visualize exactly what needs to be measured.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Conduit Bending at Free against My Bender's $2.99. Conduit Bending also leads on rating (4.8 vs 2.6) and ratings volume (580 vs 21). My Bender's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and review sentiment (50% vs 35%). On update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Conduit Bending holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Conduit Bending has 580 ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of My Bender's written reviews are positive against 35% of Conduit Bending's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

My Bender ships an update every 2 weeks, Conduit Bending fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
