The Next Generation of Bender

IN AN INDUSTRY WHERE PRECISION, SPEED, AND SAFETY DEFINE THE WORKDAY, INNOVATION ISN’T A LUXURY —IT’S A NECESSITY. For over two decades, iTOOLco has been at the forefront of electrical tool design, creating groundbreaking solutions that change how contractors approach the job. Now, with the launch of the B2 Rapid Fire Bender, iTOOLco is ushering in what can only be called a new age of bending—a leap forward that promises unmatched speed, accuracy, and adaptability for electricians and prefab shops alike.

A History of Problem-Solving

Founded in 2001 by brothers David and Michael Jordan, iTOOLco has become synonymous with field-proven innovation. Both seasoned electrical contractors themselves, the Jordans understand firsthand the frustrations that come from tools that slow you down or fail under pressure. That’s why their designs always start with one question: How can we make the electrician’s job faster, safer, and easier?

Over the years, this approach has produced game-changing tools like the Cannon 12K, the industry’s first 12,000 lb. wire puller with built-in reverse, and the Cordless Cannon 3K and 6K, which allows the user to reach areas without it. These and other iTOOLco inventions — from the gear punch with a lifetime draw stud warranty to material handling systems—have redefined productivity standards across the industry.

The B2 Rapid Fire Bender follows this same tradition, tackling one of the most common bottlenecks in the trade: conduit bending.

Bending Without Boundaries

The B2 Rapid Fire Bender stands apart as the first cordless bender capable of bending up to 2” EMT, IMC, and Rigid conduit without changing shoes. At the heart of this flexibility is Split Slip Technology, a smart design that lets a single shoe adapt instantly to different conduit types.

Switching between materials is a simple matter of adjusting the conduit alignment lever and repositioning the load bar rollers—no extra parts, no wasted minutes. For even greater efficiency, the B2 includes dual 3/4” “shotgun” bending slots, allowing operators to bend two pieces of ¾” conduit at once.

Whether in a prefab shop cranking out hundreds of identical bends or on a job site making custom runs, the B2 gives electricians the freedom to work faster without sacrificing accuracy.

One of the B2’s most impressive achievements is its ability to bend conduit up to four times faster than conventional methods. It accomplishes this through a series of engineering upgrades that remove common pain points:

  • Hydraulic Load Bar: Locks conduit into position with the push of a button, ensuring stable, repeatable bends without having to fight the load bar while trying to stay on your mark.
  • Quick Load Conduit Cradle: Holds conduit securely in place, aligning it perfectly for each bend.
  • Ergonomic Work Height: Reduces strain and gives a clear view of the conduit & marks for better accuracy.
  • Tabletop Mode: With a single pop pin, the B2 can switch from standard position to tabletop, allowing you to bend up to a 52-inch offset.

These features combine to cut downtime, reduce operator fatigue, and produce consistent results — benefits that quickly add up to significant labor savings.

Durability and mobility are also baked into the B2’s design. Recognizing that bending jobs don’t always happen in the same place, iTOOLco equipped the unit with heavy-duty casters and forklift pockets, making it easy to move across the shop floor or from one end of a job site to another.

For truly remote work, the B2 runs on standard marine batteries (Die Hard M24-3 recommended), ensuring cordless operation wherever it’s needed. And when power is available, it operates on a standard 120V (Batteries are required for any operation corded or cordless & not included).

While the B2 is built for speed, it doesn’t cut corners on accuracy. With a level surface that moves with the shoe, operators can easily ensure the correct bend angle is met every time. By holding conduit firmly in place, the hydraulic load bar prevents any warping to the conduit itself.

The result is a machine that not only bends faster but produces cleaner, more precise results than other equipment.

iTOOLco knows that even the best tools can’t reach their full potential without proper training. That’s why every B2 Rapid Fire Bender ships with QR-code access to a complete video training library.

These instructional resources walk crews through setup, operation, and advanced techniques, ensuring that even first-time users can quickly become confident operators.

“It was really important to our whole team that we give users the opportunity to learn how to use our bender since it is so different from what is currently available,” says Scott Jordan, Product Development & Applications Director. “Taking those courses will have you and your team up in no time.”

The B2 Rapid Fire Bender is right at home in high-volume prefab environments and dynamic on-site conditions. In a shop setting, its speed and repeatability turn out identical bends with assembly-line efficiency. In the field, its mobility and cordless operation make it a go-to solution for complex projects where speed and adaptability are key.

For contractors managing multiple crews or large projects, the B2’s design ensures that productivity gains aren’t tied to a single location or power source. It’s a flexible, scalable solution that grows with your operation.

Labor remains one of the most significant costs in any electrical project. By delivering bends up to 75% faster than conventional methods, the B2 Rapid Fire Bender dramatically shortens project timelines. The reduction in material waste only amplifies the return on investment.

Contractors who adopt the B2 aren’t just buying a tool—they’re gaining a productivity multiplier that will continue to pay dividends job after job.

The design of the B2 reflects the hands-on experience of its creators who know the daily challenges electricians face—bending on uneven ground, swapping shoes mid-job, struggling with heavy materials—and they built the B2 to eliminate those obstacles.

The result is a tool that’s taller, faster, and more durable than its competitors, offering a better bender with years of dependable service.
