Description
The Gardner Bender 960 BigBen is a lightweight aluminum hand bender head designed for bending 1/2 inch EMT conduit. It delivers the precision and durability electricians need for accurate, code-compliant bends on both aerial and floor-mounted installations. Whether you're running conduit through a ceiling or laying pipe on the ground, this compact bender provides consistent results while reducing hand fatigue on the job site.
This hand bender addresses the core challenges of conduit work: achieving tight, uniform curves without material waste, meeting NEC standards reliably, and maintaining accuracy across varied bending angles. The BigBen's enlarged hook and improved design features make it a durable, long-lasting choice for professional electricians working with EMT.
