Conduit Fittings

Conduit fittings help electricians, contractors, and maintenance teams assemble, protect, support, and service electrical conduit systems. This category includes fittings for accessing conduit interiors during wire pulling and splicing, connecting conduit at enclosures, sealing conduit body covers, supporting overhead runs, protecting conductor sheathing, and routing liquid-tight conduit into enclosures.

Choose Conduit Fittings for the Connection, Access, or Support You Need

Conduit fittings serve different jobs within an electrical installation. Start by identifying whether the work calls for an access point, a cover seal, an enclosure connection, an overhead support, cable-edge protection, or a turn into an enclosure. Then compare the listed size, conduit or cable compatibility, body style, material, and pack quantity.

Use Cases

Match the fitting to the task

Use conduit bodies for wire pulling, splicing, and service access; gaskets to seal covered metallic conduit bodies; nipples and connectors at enclosure entries; hangers for overhead support; and anti-short bushings to help protect conductor sheathing.

How to Choose

Confirm size and compatibility first

Compare the stated fitting size with the conduit body, conduit, cable, or enclosure application. Also check whether the item is intended for IMC, rigid conduit, EMT, PVC, liquid-tight conduit, or FMC, AC, BX, and MC cable.

Applications

Plan around the conduit run

LR and LL threaded conduit bodies provide accessible points in conduit runs. A 90-degree liquid-tight connector accommodates a turn before entering an enclosure, while conduit hangers secure and suspend runs where overhead routing is needed.

Additional Info

Planning Guide

Plan the right fit before choosing

Plan the fitting function

Select by the job the fitting performs

Different fittings address distinct parts of a conduit installation. Threaded LR and LL conduit bodies provide access to the conduit interior for pulling wire, making splices, and maintenance work. Conduit nipples connect threaded conduit to enclosure knockouts when used with a locknut, while 90-degree liquid-tight connectors route liquid-tight conduit into enclosures.

  • Choose LR or LL conduit bodies when the run needs an access point.
  • Choose a conduit nipple for a short raceway between boxes and enclosures or a connection at an enclosure.
  • Choose a 90-degree liquid-tight connector where the conduit must turn before entering an enclosure.
  • Choose anti-short bushings to help protect conductor sheathing from sharp cable edges.
Check fit and system compatibility

Compare the stated size, style, and conduit type

Sizes represented range from 1/2 inch components to 4-inch conduit bodies, with gaskets available for 1/2-inch bodies and for 1-1/4 inch to 1-1/2 inch bodies. Threaded conduit bodies are identified for compatible IMC or rigid conduit systems. Hangers are designed for EMT, PVC, or rigid conduit, while anti-short bushings are intended for FMC, AC, BX, and MC cable.

  • Match conduit body covers and gaskets to the compatible body size.
  • Select the LR or LL body style specified for the installation.
  • Verify that the conduit type aligns with the fitting's stated compatibility.
  • For hangers, match the hanger size to the conduit size being secured.
Factor in sealing, support, and material

Choose features that align with installation conditions

Conduit body covers and nitrile gaskets help seal covered metallic conduit bodies against dust and help limit moisture entry to support corrosion prevention. Stainless steel hangers provide corrosion-resistant construction for supporting overhead conduit, and aluminum conduit bodies and covers provide lightweight aluminum options. Preassembled hanger hardware includes combo round-head screws and hex nuts.

  • Use a nitrile gasket with a cover where dust-tight and moisture-sealing support is needed.
  • Use conduit hangers to secure and suspend compatible conduit runs overhead.
  • Compare pack quantities when the project requires multiple fittings or support points.
FAQ

Common questions before buying

What are conduit bodies used for?

LR and LL threaded conduit bodies provide access to a conduit run for pulling wire, making splices, and maintenance work.

What is a conduit body gasket for?

A nitrile conduit body gasket helps seal a covered metallic conduit body against dust and helps limit moisture entry.

Which conduit types can the hangers support?

The listed stainless steel conduit hangers are designed to secure and suspend EMT, PVC, or rigid conduit.

What do anti-short bushings do?

Anti-short bushings help provide a protective barrier between conductor sheathing and sharp cable edges for FMC, AC, BX, and MC cable applications.
