Greenlee 1801 Mechanical Bender for 1-1/4, 1-1/2 IMC and Rigid Conduit

Discover the Greenlee 1801 Mechanical Bender. It offers a ratchet action that boosts leverage. You can use a 5 - foot section of 1 - inch rigid conduit as a handle (handle not included). For smaller sizes, bypass the ratchet for quick, direct bending. Its heavy - duty welded build ensures long - lasting and reliable service. There's a built - in bending degree indicator and user - friendly bending charts for precise and consistent bends. The bender can handle 1 - 1/4" and 1 - 1/2" IMC and Rigid conduit. It weighs 104 lbs (47.2 kg), with specific conduit dimensions of 8 - 1/16" (204.8 mm) for 1 - 1/4" and 9 - 11/16" (246.1 mm) for 1 - 1/2".

Using the Greenlee 1801 Mechanical Bender is quite straightforward. First, if you need extra leverage, attach a 5 - foot section of 1 - inch rigid conduit as a handle. For smaller conduit sizes, you can skip using the ratchet for faster bending. When bending, refer to the built - in degree indicator and the bending charts to get accurate bends. Be careful not to overload the bender beyond its capacity of 1 - 1/4" and 1 - 1/2" IMC and Rigid conduit. As for maintenance, keep the bender clean and dry. Check the welded parts regularly for any signs of damage. If you notice any issues, stop using it and get it repaired.
