(Spanish Reference: DOBLADORA DE TUBERÍA EMT DE ALUMINIO CON MANGO)
Product Definition
The ALEX® Aluminum EMT Bender is a professional-grade hand tool engineered for electricians who demand precision and consistency. Manufactured from lightweight, heat-treated die-cast aluminum, it offers exceptional durability without the heavy weight of malleable iron, significantly reducing user fatigue during repetitive bending tasks
Supplied as a complete set with a high-strength steel handle, this bender features deeply cast markings and a wide foot pedal to ensure smooth, accurate, and wrinkle-free bends in Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT).
Key Features & Benefits
Lightweight & Durable: The aluminum construction is tough enough for job site abuse but light enough for all-day carry.
Precision Markings: Features raised cast markings for 10°, 22.5°, 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90° angles, along with a "Star" point for back-to-back bends and an arrow for stub-ups.
Maximum Leverage: The included steel handle with a non-slip grip provides optimal leverage, making manual bending effortless.
Stability: Designed with a wide, non-slip foot pedal to keep the tool stable on the floor during the bending stroke.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can this bender also bend Rigid conduit?
A: Generally, yes, but you must size up. For example, a 3/4" EMT bender can typically bend 1/2" Rigid conduit due to the difference in wall thickness. Please check the specific markings on the bender head.
Q: Does the handle come pre-assembled?
A: The handle is included in the package. It screws firmly into the bender head and can be removed for compact storage or transport if needed.
Q: Why choose Aluminum over Iron?
A: Aluminum is significantly lighter. If an electrician is carrying the tool around a large job site or climbing ladders, the weight savings reduce fatigue. Iron is heavier but sometimes preferred for stationary, heavy-duty repetitive work.
Q: Do you offer OEM branding?
A: Yes. We support OEM production. We can cast your logo into the bender head (subject to mold tooling requirements) or customize the packaging and handle labeling.
Q: What is the lead time?
A: Our standard lead time is approximately 4 weeks. We recommend confirming specific delivery schedules with our sales team before placing large orders.
