Bridgeport Fittings LB-61CG Type Lb Conduit Body 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The BRIDGEPORT FITTINGS LB-61CG is a 1/2-inch malleable iron Type LB rigid conduit body supplied with a zinc-coated steel cover and neoprene gasket. It is designed for 90-degree cable pulls, with conductors exiting through the back of the body opposite the cover. The NPT-threaded hubs accept rigid metallic conduit (RMC) and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) screwed directly into place. With a 4.5 cubic inch interior volume, zinc electro-plate finish, and malleable iron construction, this conduit body delivers strong corrosion and impact-abrasion resistance suited to demanding industrial environments. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this fitting during raceway rough-in and conductor-pulling operations.

The LB-61CG is intended for use in wet locations and heavy-duty industrial applications where reliable conduit access points are required. It provides access to the interior of the conduit system for conductor pulling, splicing, inspection, and routine maintenance. The preassembled neoprene gasket seals the cover interface against dust, water, and most liquids and oils. Trade size 1/2-inch conduit bodies in this series are available through 4 inches, making this fitting part of a consistent product family for full-system builds.

Compatibility

Listed for use with rigid metallic raceways including rigid metal conduit and intermediate metal conduit. Suitable for wet locations. NEMA 4 rated.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits in the conduit run before opening the body or pulling conductors. Thread rigid or intermediate metal conduit into the NPT hubs by hand first, then tighten with appropriate conduit wrenches to ensure a secure, watertight connection. Do not overtighten the cover hardware, as this can damage the neoprene gasket and compromise the NEMA 4 wet-location seal.
