Quality product. I have been using Klein tools for about 60 years and quality is always there.

By this tool's auto stop at 10 degrees, I can take the length of the tubing I'm bending and mark off where to put the tool. One takes the length of tube divided by 10 degree increments of the arc of the circle part being bent. For example, to make a half circle, 180 degrees 36 inches final diameter, you'll need 18 individual bends. Since the circumference of a 36 inch circle is (Pi x diameter) 3.146 x 36 = 113 inches. Half of that is 56.5 inches. Divide by the 18 bends of 10 degrees each equals 3.146 inches. Mark the tubing at 4.125 (3 1/8 inches.) Since the tool has 10 degrees marked on it, it very simple to put the tool at the mark and make the bend. The bend will stop when 10 degrees is reached. Easy, beautiful, circles every time.

Does what it’s supposed to: bends metal conduit without crimping it. If you’ve never used a bender, read the instructions a few times and practice on a spare piece of conduit to get a feel for it, but it’s not difficult mentally. It can be difficult physically if you’re not accustomed to bending steel. Take your time, think through what you want as an end result, follow the instructions, learn from your mistak…experiences. Ha.
