📝 About this app
iBend Pipe is the best conduit bending applicaiton on an iPhone, it helps you bend it right...the first time.
It calculates the following bends using English or Metric measurements so you don’t have to:
-Offsets Bends (specify towards an obstruction or away from an obstruction)
-Rolling Offsets Bends (specify towards an obstruction or away from an obstruction)
-Parallel Offset Adjustment
-3-Bend Saddles
-4-Bend Saddles
-Segment Bends
-90° Bends
-Back to Back 90° Bends
-Kicked 90°s Bends
-Compound 90° Bends around a Round Obstruction
-Compound 90° Bends around a Square Obstruction
-Compound 90° Bends around a Rectangular Obstruction
+ HOW DOES IT WORK?
Simply slide your finger to set measurements and results are updated instantly. There is no need to navigate through multiple screens just to get a measurement. Easy and intuitive to use, and measurement are displayed in big font to make it easy to read.
+FAST ONE SCREEN CALCULATIONS
Simple one screen calculations that show results "live" and on the fly as you slide your finger to enter values in.
+ACCURATE CALCULATIONS
Centerline bending radius - based calculations are also available. These calculations offer greater accuracy when compared to bending multiplier methods. Preposition your bends automatically. All bends take shrink into account so you don't have to do any math. What's faster - bending it twice or bending it right the first time?
+PROTRACTOR FUNCTION INCLUDED
Use the included protractor function to measure the angle as you bend. Angle will be fed directly from your input screen to save you time.
+BENDER PROFILES
Almost 100 different bender/pipe combinations included. You have the ability to tweak or completely modify any of the combinations to match your bender on the field.
+ WHO IS IT FOR?
If you consider yourself a craftsman that takes pride in his work, iBend Pipe is for you. If other "sparkies" come to you when they have a difficult bend, this is for you. If you want to have a smaller "bone" pile, this is for you. If you can write your name in conduit, this is for you. From, a 1st year inside wireman apprentice to a seasoned “old timer” this app will save you time and material.
Input fractions instead of converting to decimals and get results in fractions.

🌍Geographic ReachNot ranked
This app is currently outside the top 100 grossing in all 9 countries we monitor (US, UK, DE, FR, JP, CA, AU, BR, IN). Niche or new apps often launch this way — popularity rankings appear once daily revenue clears the regional threshold.
Profile is built from iTunes Lookup + developer site scrape + ML revenue model. Empty fields show "Not found" — additional sources (Crunchbase, X, IndieHackers, Acquire.com) coming.
