Crouse-Hinds LR55-MT Type LR Condulet Conduit Outlet Body, 1-1/2-Inch Die Cast Aluminum

The Crouse-Hinds LR55-MT is a Type LR condulet conduit outlet body engineered for 1-1/2-Inch rigid and IMC conduit runs where wiring must enter and exit on the same side while allowing a right-angle turn. Constructed from die cast aluminum, this Condulet body provides a rugged, corrosion-resistant enclosure for splicing, pulling, and redirecting conductors within a conduit system. The Type LR configuration is a standard, widely specified body style used across commercial, industrial, and utility electrical installations that rely on rigid metal conduit for conductor protection. As a dependable pull and junction point, the LR55-MT helps electrical contractors route conduit around obstructions without adding unnecessary stress to conductors, making it a practical solution wherever rigid or IMC conduit changes direction.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: Sized for 1-1/2-Inch conduit connections, matching standard rigid and IMC conduit runs.
  • Durable Construction: Die cast aluminum body resists corrosion and provides long-term durability in demanding electrical environments, including exposure to moisture and industrial atmospheres.
  • Type LR Configuration: The LR outlet design allows conductors to enter and exit from the same side of the body, simplifying conduit routing around obstructions and tight installation spaces.
  • Condulet Design: Provides an accessible junction point for splicing and pulling wire within rigid conduit systems, reducing strain on conductors during installation and future maintenance.
  • Threaded Hubs: Designed to connect directly into rigid/IMC conduit systems as part of a complete Crouse-Hinds condulet assembly, ensuring a secure mechanical and electrical connection.
  • Removable Cover Compatibility: Body accepts a standard LR-style cover (sold separately where applicable) to seal and protect the conductor access point from dust and debris.
  • Model Designation: Identified as the LR55-MT, matching the exact Type LR body and 1-1/2-Inch trade size required for accurate conduit system planning.

Crouse-Hinds LR55-MT – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between an LR, LB, and LL conduit body, and when do I use the LR?
The letter tells you where the cover opening sits relative to the right-angle turn. The Crouse-Hinds LR55-MT is a Type LR body, so conductors enter and exit on the same side of the body while the run makes a right-angle turn, with the access opening on the right as you face the back of the fitting. LL is the mirror image (opening on the left), and LB turns the run back toward the wall or down. Pick the LR when you are routing rigid or IMC conduit around an obstruction and need the pull opening facing right.
2) What conduit size does the Crouse-Hinds LR55-MT take?
1-1/2 inch trade size. The threaded hubs land directly on 1-1/2 inch rigid metal conduit or IMC, so a 1-1/2 inch run needs no bushings or adapters at the body. For any other trade size you need the matching LR body in that size, not this one.
3) Will the LR55-MT thread onto EMT?
No. The LR55-MT has threaded hubs intended for rigid metal conduit and IMC, which are threaded raceways. EMT is unthreaded and needs a setscrew or compression connector, so if your run is 1-1/2 inch EMT you want an EMT-style outlet body or a transition fitting ahead of the condulet.
4) Does the LR55-MT come with a cover and gasket?
Order the cover separately. The body accepts a standard LR-style cover; the cover (and gasket, where the install calls for one) is not part of the body itself. Plan on a cover in your material list so the conductor access point is sealed against dust and debris once the pull is done.
5) Is a die cast aluminum condulet body OK in a damp or industrial area?
Die cast aluminum is the standard choice for general commercial and industrial conduit runs and resists corrosion in moisture and ordinary industrial atmospheres, which is what the LR55-MT is built for. Where you have chemical exposure, chlorides, or a wash-down environment, electricians typically move to an epoxy-coated or malleable iron body instead. Aluminum should also not be used in direct contact with concrete or in high-chloride soil.
6) Can I use a conduit outlet body like this as a splice point, or only as a pull point?
The LR55-MT works as both. It gives you an accessible junction for splicing as well as pulling conductors inside a rigid conduit system, which is why contractors set them at direction changes rather than forcing a bend. One thing to check on your own job: conduit bodies have a limited volume, so the number and size of conductors you can splice inside is governed by the body's cubic-inch capacity marked on the fitting.
7) What is the exact part number I should order for a 1-1/2 inch Crouse-Hinds LR condulet?
LR55-MT. That designation is the Crouse-Hinds Type LR body in 1-1/2 inch trade size, die cast aluminum. Distributors and estimators should quote it as LR55-MT; the 55 is the size code within the LR series.
8) Can I use this on a retrofit where I am tying into existing threaded conduit?
Yes, that is a normal use. Because the hubs are threaded for rigid and IMC, the LR55-MT drops into an existing 1-1/2 inch threaded run as a new pull or splice point, and it is equally at home in new construction. Field-cut conduit needs to be reamed and threaded cleanly so you get a solid mechanical and electrical connection at the hub.
