Southwire LB5SSCG Lb Conduit Body 1-1/2 Inch Aluminum

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE LB5SSCG is a 1-1/2 inch LB-style conduit body designed for use with EMT and rigid conduit systems. An LB conduit body provides a 90-degree change of direction in a conduit run while allowing access for wire pulling and future maintenance. Constructed from aluminum, this fitting offers corrosion resistance suited to both interior and exterior installations. Electricians and electrical contractors install this type of fitting where conduit transitions through walls or changes direction in exposed raceway systems. At 15 pounds, this is a substantial fitting appropriate for larger trade-size conduit runs.

The LB5SSCG is intended for 1-1/2 inch EMT and rigid conduit installations in commercial, industrial, and residential electrical systems. LB conduit bodies are commonly used where a conduit run must make a 90-degree turn and exit through the back of the fitting, such as at wall penetrations or equipment entries. The aluminum construction makes it suitable for damp and wet location applications where ferrous fittings would be prone to corrosion.

Key Features

• LB configuration provides 90-degree directional change with back-exit for wire routing
• Compatible with both EMT and rigid conduit at 1-1/2 inch trade size
• Aluminum construction resists corrosion in damp and wet locations
• Removable cover plate allows access for wire pulling and maintenance
• Suitable for exposed raceway installations in commercial and industrial environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for use with 1-1/2 inch EMT and rigid conduit systems in standard electrical raceway installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize all circuits in the affected conduit run before opening or working on any conduit body. Ensure the cover gasket is properly seated when reassembling to maintain the fitting's rated environmental protection. Do not exceed the conduit body's fill capacity as calculated per NEC Chapter 9 tables.
