Southwire ELR5090 90 Degree Rigid Conduit Elbow 1/2 in

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE ELR5090 is a 90-degree elbow fitting for rigid metal conduit (RMC) systems, sized for 1/2-inch trade conduit. Constructed from galvanized steel, it provides corrosion resistance in exposed and embedded installations. Electricians use this elbow to route rigid conduit runs through directional changes in walls, ceilings, and exposed structural areas. The galvanized finish suits both indoor and outdoor environments where moisture or mechanical damage is a concern. It is a standard trade-size fitting that integrates directly into rigid conduit systems without modification.

This elbow is suited for residential and commercial electrical installations where rigid metal conduit is required by code or preferred for mechanical protection. Typical applications include service entrances, industrial raceways, exposed conduit runs in commercial buildings, and any installation requiring a code-compliant 90-degree directional change in a rigid conduit system. Licensed electricians are the primary installers, though it also sees use in industrial maintenance and plant electrical work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out any circuits in the conduit run before beginning work. Use appropriate conduit threading tools and thread sealant or conduit wrench as required for a secure, weathertight joint. Verify that the elbow bend radius meets NEC requirements for the conductors being pulled through the conduit.
