Stacked 4-Point Saddles: How to Calculate Offset Adjustments for Parallel Runs# electrician#emt

When running multiple conduits in parallel, stacked one over the other maintaining consistent spacing through your offsets and saddles is what separates a pro from an amateur. In this video, we use trigonometry to calculate the exact adjustment needed for a stacked four-point saddle.

We use the Tangent function to adjust our marks based on the 1 3/4" center-to-center spacing of the knockouts, ensuring the pipes stay perfectly parallel throughout the entire run.
Key Concepts Covered:
. The Math: Multiplying center-to-center spacing by \bm{\tan(15^\circ)} to find the adjustment factor [00:20].

. The Calculation: Turning \bm{0.469} into \bm{8/16"} (1/2") for real-world marking [01:33].

-Adjusting the Marks: Moving your points by 1/2" to keep the spacing uniform (e.g., 13" becomes 12 1/2") [02:19].

. Bending Technique: A mix of "in the air" and "on the floor" bending for maximum control [03:30].

. The Final Result: Seeing how the 1/2" adjustment keeps the gap between conduits identical [06:32].

Master this mathematical approach to parallel runs and your conduit racks will look perfect every time.
