Using the No-Dog
Position conduit in bender.Attach No-Dog to conduit at either end as shown below. Adjust bender pressure on conduit so conduit is snug yet loose enough to be turned with a pair of channelloks, pipe wrench or chain wrench.Turn conduit until No-Dog shows level.Bend conduit to desired angle.
What is a no-dog tool?
Product Description. The No-Dog is a handy tool for electricians that eliminates “dog-legs” in offsets and saddles. It is precision tooled from lightweight, durable aluminum. Measuring 1/2″ by 1″ by 2″, it is useful as a spacer with multiple runs of conduit.
Who invented the no-dog?
Remembering Ron Aubrey
Ron invented the No-Dog in 1987 to help electricians make accurate offset bends in metal conduit. He shifted from working as a journeyman wireman to manufacturing and selling this tool full time, and this business has supported his family for nearly three decades.
When and where is a no dog level attached on the conduit?
The “No-Dog” is a hand tool that eliminates “dog-legs” in offsets and saddles. It is a lightweight aluminum level measuring 1/2″ by 1″ by 2″ that is clipped to the end of the conduit when making bends.
What does no dog in this fight mean?
phrase. DEFINITIONS1. to have/not have an interest in a conflict. I don’t have a dog in this fight – other than I absolutely hate any type of fearmongering.
How do you level conduit bending?
Make your first bend, release bender, and find your next mark. Rotate conduit until Cliffhanger bubble is level at 180 degrees or 90 degrees and make your next bend. You can repeat this process until the desired bends are complete.
What is the multiplier for 10 Bend?
This is where the multipliers of 6 for 10 degrees, 2.6 for 22.5 degrees, 2.0 for 30 degrees, 1.4 for 45 degrees, and 1.2 for 60 degrees come from. This method is an approximation and is not mathematically correct, because it does not use the length of the arc of the bend.
What angle of bend is typically used in order to determine the radius adjustment?
The offset will be pre-positioned using the radius adjustment so that it clears the obstruction. This offset should use either 45° or 30° bends.
