This would be FALSE, In the case of making a four-bin saddle (a type of conduit bending), the bender hook does not point toward the center of the obstruction. Instead, it points away from the center of the obstruction. The bender hook helps to create the offset required for the conduit to go over the obstruction or to change direction without hitting it. The bend produced by the hook allows the conduit to clear the obstruction or create the necessary offset without interfering with it.
