Questions & Answers

What kind of bender does it have? Is it the iron head or the aluminum head?

It is not one of those crappy aluminum ones, it is an iron head bender. The bender does a great job.

Is it possible to use 3/4 shoe on this bender? What does this refer to? Does this use a single handle for 1/2 and 3/4 shoes?

Yes, the handle size is the same for both half-inch and 3/4-inch drill bits.

What kind of bender boot does it have on the bottom to prevent it from rolling around?

I don't think it does

Definitely one of your best benders! The answer is yes, it's ideal! The only thing is that you need to know your way around the product to make full use of what it can do

5/5

The company does make excellent products, and their products live up to the name, however. When wearing out this bender, if you don't tighten it further than it already is, you will think you're buying a knock off, and paying premium. I guess it's a trade secret, because no one is talking about it. Purchase one of the best conduit benders that you can find!.

It is very well designed

5/5

The excellent construction and design of the Ideal products deserve my acclaim. There was a bit of an overpriced feeling to it. A larger one is available elsewhere for less money.

This was exactly what I expected! Price is great, and it's a replacement for an Ideal that I bought back in 1992 (that was fine after 20 years) that never arrived

5/5

The only bender I will buy from now on is this one! If you are a beginning bender, here is my recommendation to you get the bender, get some 1/2" emt, follow the book, find some stuff around the house, or wherever you are, and just.
