Stop guessing your bends. EasyBend is the fastest, most accurate conduit bending calculator built for electricians who need perfect results on the job. Get instant mark locations for offsets, saddles, 90s, kicks, and more — no formulas, no trial and error. Whether you're an apprentice learning the trade or a journeyman working fast in the field, EasyBend helps you bend conduit right the first time. ALL YOUR BENDS. ONE APP. • Offset — standard, rolling, and parallel offsets • 3-Point & 4-Point Saddle — clear obstacles with precision • 90° Stub-Up — instant deduct and take-up • Back-to-Back 90° — accurate U-bends with gain • Parallel 90° — match bends perfectly • Segmented 90° — smooth large-radius bends • Kick Bends — quick single-angle adjustments • Compound Bends — route around complex obstacles BUILT FOR REAL BENDERS Works with EMT, IMC, and Rigid conduit. Supports real bender specs so your calculations match what’s in your hands — not generic math. FIELD RULE OR EXACT PRECISION Use standard trade “field rule” values for fast everyday work, or switch to exact trigonometric calculations for precise layouts and prefab jobs. SMART WARNINGS (SAVE PIPE) EasyBend detects impossible or risky bends before you make them: • Marks too close together • Bender shoe won’t fit • Obstacle can’t be cleared • Measurements exceed conduit length VISUAL BEND DIAGRAMS See exactly where to place marks and how the bend will look before you start. No more second guessing. PLAN YOUR ENTIRE RUN Lay out multiple bends on a single stick of conduit. Visualize your full setup before making the first bend. DESIGNED FOR THE JOB SITE • Large, glove-friendly controls • Fractional inch display (like your tape measure) • Feet + inches support • Works 100% offline FREE — NO PURCHASE REQUIRED • Standard Offset calculator with instant mark locations • Visual bend diagrams with step-by-step marking guides • Real bender specs for EMT, IMC, and Rigid conduit • Field rule or exact trigonometric precision • Smart warnings that catch impossible bends before you make them • Fractional inch display, feet + inches support, works 100% offline EASYBEND PRO — REQUIRES ONE-TIME IN-APP PURCHASE The following features are available only with the EasyBend Pro lifetime upgrade: • Rolling & Parallel Offsets • 3-Point & 4-Point Saddles — clear obstacles with precision • 90° Stub-Up — instant deduct and take-up • Back-to-Back 90° — accurate U-bends with gain • Parallel 90° — match bends perfectly • Segmented 90° — smooth large-radius bends • Kick Bends — quick single-angle adjustments • Compound Bends — route around complex obstacles • Layout Planner — lay out multiple bends on a single stick of conduit • Custom Benders — save your own bender specs NO GUESSWORK.

About

OFFSET

Features
Read full description

You are on a lift with a stick of three-quarter EMT and a bender, and the phone in your pocket does not know what a shrink is. OFFSET tells you where to put your marks — and then watches you make the bend. Give it the height you need and the angle you want. It gives you back the distance between marks, the shrink, and how far from the end of the pipe the first mark goes — in inches and sixteenths, the way it is written on the pipe, not as a decimal you have to convert on a ladder. LAY THE PHONE ON THE PIPE Every other bending app hands you a number and goes back in your pocket, which leaves the part where mistakes actually happen unwatched. OFFSET reads the angle off the phone's own tilt sensor. Rest it on the straight leg, tap Zero, and pull — a tone climbs as you close on the angle and holds steady when you are on it, because at that moment both hands are on the handle and a screen is no use to anyone. IT LEARNS YOUR SPRINGBACK Steel does not stay where you put it. Pull to thirty, let go, and the pipe relaxes a few degrees short. The phone never leaves the conduit, so it knows what you pulled to and what it settled at, and the difference is your springback. After a few bends it stops guessing and starts telling you to pull to thirty-three for a thirty — for your bender, at your size, in your hands. BENDS • Offset • Rolling offset, for a run that moves sideways and up at once • Kick • Three-point saddle, over a pipe or a beam • Four-point saddle, over something wide • 90-degree stub-up to a finished height • Back-to-back 90s FILL • Conduit fill to NEC Chapter 9, Tables 1, 4 and 5 • Box fill to NEC 314.16(B) YOUR BENDER, NOT A GENERIC ONE Take-up is a property of the tool in your hand. Pick Klein, Ideal, Greenlee, Milwaukee, Gardner Bender or Southwire in EMT or rigid, or enter your own. If the number stamped on your bender disagrees with the book, correct it — the correction is kept for that bender and that size, and every calculation after it uses your figure. TWO DRAWINGS, NOT ONE The top drawing is the finished bend. The bottom one is the stick as it is right now — straight, on the floor, with the marks where the pencil actually goes and dashed lines joining each bend to the mark that makes it. Take hold of the grip on the drawing and the height follows your thumb, a sixteenth at a time, with the marks moving as it changes. BUILT FOR A JOBSITE • Big type and big targets, so it works in gloves • Dark screen, so it does not blind you in a dark ceiling • Step a number a sixteenth at a time, or tap it and type it on a keypad that works in fractions instead of decimals • Every answer shows its working, so you can check it before you pull the handle • No account, no ads, no subscription, and no signal needed to calculate • Free to use for offsets, 90-degree stub-ups and the angle gauge THE MATH The multipliers are the field-standard ones you were taught — 6, 2.6, 2, 1.4 and 1.2 — not raw trigonometry, so the marks agree with the numbers printed on your bender and with what the journeyman next to you worked out in his head. Saddles use their own multipliers, because a 22.5-degree bend in a saddle is not the same as a 22.5-degree bend in an offset. ANY ANGLE, NOT JUST FIVE Your bender is stamped for 10, 22.5, 30, 45 and 60, and those five carry the taught multipliers. But an obstacle sits where it sits, so you can type any angle from 1 to 90 and the app falls back to the trigonometry those taught values approximate — and tells you, on screen, which of the two it used. Inches and NEC. This is the US edition. OFFSET is a calculation aid, not a substitute for your own training or for the code. Take-up, radius and springback differ between benders, so check every figure against the tool in your hands and measure the bend before you cut.

Verdict

The call

Easy Bend and OFFSET are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters — price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
