  • Benfield markings guide accurate results every time
  • Aluminium head reaches tight spaces other tools can't

Compact EMT Bender Head

The Ideal 74-031 head bends 1/2 inch EMT and Rigid Flexible Metal Conduit. Its aluminium body fits tight spaces where larger tools cannot reach. Benfield Manufacturing markings on the head give clear reference points for accurate, repeatable bends. Electricians running conduit on a daily basis will find it a reliable addition to their kit.

Simple Handle-Free Setup

The bender head ships without a handle so you can use any standard 1/2 inch conduit length as leverage. Slide the head onto the pipe, align the markings, and apply steady pressure with the built-in pedal to hold the conduit while you bend. The main mistake is forcing the bend past the 4 11/32 inch centreline radius, which can kink the tubing or distort the angle.

Radius and Material Limits

The fixed 4 11/32 inch centreline radius determines the tightest bend you can achieve with this head. It is designed only for 1/2 inch EMT and flexible metal conduit; larger diameters or rigid steel pipe exceed the head's capacity. The aluminium construction resists corrosion but can deform under excessive force, so keep bends within the marked range for consistent results.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the Ideal 74-031 is bending 1/2 EMT conduit to the correct 4 11/32 in centerline radius after setup?

After bending a test piece, measure the radius from the conduit centre to the bend centreline; it should match the 4 11/32 in specification and the Benfield markings should align with your intended angle marks.

What comes with the Ideal 74-031 and what must I supply myself?

The package contains the aluminium bender head with Benfield markings and an integrated pedal; a separate handle is required because the head is sold without one.

Which version of the Ideal 74-031 should I choose for 1/2 EMT conduit work?

The 74-031 model is specifically made for 1/2 EMT rigid conduit and also works with Rigid Flexible Metal Conduit; select this head when those are the conduit types you install.
