| Feb 23, 2023 at 16:50 | comment | added | JACK | I'm not one to DV so I won't but I fail to see how this answers the OP's question. The OP isn't asking for a lesson on how to bend conduit offsets, he's not even mentioning a bender at all. | |
| Feb 22, 2023 at 22:34 | comment | added | Mark Schultheiss | typical box 3/8 in offset 2 marks 2 1/4 in apart - 10 deg. each bend 180 deg offset. Basically 180 is the opposite side of the conduit. - shrink will be super small and prob not even a factor with the fittings on each end at the box | |

| Feb 22, 2023 at 22:13 | comment | added | Mark Schultheiss | FWIW bending also allows the "pull" to be easier than the fittings | |
| Feb 22, 2023 at 22:13 | comment | added | Mark Schultheiss | Here is a reference with the offset and the "shrink" for a bend - very small shrink for this small offset requirement kleintools.com/sites/kleintools/files/instructions/… | |

| Feb 22, 2023 at 15:54 | comment | added | FreeMan | That took a minute to kick in, @ChrisO, but it's funny now that it has! | |
| Feb 22, 2023 at 15:49 | comment | added | Chris O | @FreeMan Only electricians who listen to a lot of Metallica. :) | |
| Feb 22, 2023 at 15:46 | comment | added | FreeMan | "Slide pipe thru the never about" you may want to edit to clarify that bit. Unless "thru the never" is an electrician term for some part of a pipe bender. If so, clarify for the uninitiated would be helpful, too. | |
