Red Dot SALB-8 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Red Dot SALB-8 work with 3 inch rigid conduit?
Yes. The SALB-8 is a 3 inch LB conduit body built for rigid and IMC conduit, so it threads onto standard 3 inch rigid or intermediate metal conduit runs. It will not serve EMT or PVC runs without an appropriate transition fitting.
2) Does the SALB-8 come with the cover and gasket, or do I order those separately?
Body, cover and gasket all ship together under the single part number SALB-8. Nothing additional is needed to close up the fitting, so the only other items on the job are your conduit, locknuts or bushings as the run requires.
3) What is a 3 inch LB conduit body used for on a service entrance?
An LB body makes a 90 degree pull point where a conduit run turns from an exterior wall into the building, typically where a service entrance raceway enters. The removable cover gives you access to pull conductors through the bend instead of trying to feed them around an elbow. The SALB-8 does this for 3 inch rigid or IMC conduit.
4) Is the Red Dot SALB-8 suitable for outdoor wall penetrations?
It is a die cast aluminum body supplied with a gasket, which is the standard construction for exterior rigid conduit pull points where the cover joint has to be sealed against weather. Aluminum also avoids the rust issues of painted steel on an exposed wall.
5) Can I use an aluminum LB body like the SALB-8 with galvanized rigid steel conduit?
The SALB-8 body is die cast aluminum, and it threads to standard rigid/IMC conduit thread. Many contractors run it on galvanized rigid, but where dissimilar metal contact in a wet or corrosive location is a concern on your spec, a matching material fitting is the safer call.
6) What is the exact part number to order the 3 inch Red Dot LB with cover and gasket?
Order Red Dot SALB-8. That single number covers the 3 inch LB conduit body with its cover and gasket, and it is the only configuration offered under it.
