B-LINE 88-12LE9TC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size wireway does the B-Line 88-12LE9TC elbow fit?
It is built for 8 x 8 inch wireway. The fitting measures 8 inches high by 8 inches wide with an 11.44 inch length/depth, so it mates to a standard 8 by 8 run. If your trough is 4 x 4 or 6 x 6, this is the wrong size elbow.
2) What does clockwise mean on a 90 degree transposition elbow, and will it work if my run turns the other way?
Transposition elbows turn the wireway 90 degrees and rotate the trough orientation at the same time, and the rotation direction is fixed. The 88-12LE9TC is the clockwise version. If your run needs the opposite rotation, you need the counterclockwise elbow instead; this one cannot be flipped to do both.
3) Is this B-Line elbow rated for a NEMA 12 wireway system?
Yes. The 88-12LE9TC is a NEMA 12 rated fitting, so it suits dust-tight and drip-tight indoor industrial runs. It is UL Listed. Do not use it on a NEMA 3R outdoor or NEMA 1 screw-cover system expecting a matched seal.
4) Does the sealing plate kit come with the elbow or do I order it separately?
The sealing plate kit ships with the elbow. That is what maintains the NEMA 12 dust-tight and drip-tight joint where the fitting meets the wireway sections, so you do not need to source gasketing separately for the connection.
5) When do I use a transposition elbow instead of a standard 90 degree wireway elbow?
Use a standard 90 when the run turns within the same plane and the trough orientation stays the same. A transposition elbow like the 88-12LE9TC turns 90 degrees and changes the orientation of the wireway at the same time, which is what you need when the run has to move from, say, a horizontal to a vertical face and keep the cover accessible. Direction matters: this is the clockwise unit.
6) What is the exact part number to order for the clockwise 8 inch NEMA 12 transposition elbow?
Order Eaton B-Line 88-12LE9TC. That number covers the clockwise 90 degree transposition elbow for 8 x 8 NEMA 12 steel wireway in ANSI 61 gray, sealing plate kit included.
7) What is the finish on this Eaton B-Line wireway elbow, and will it match my existing trough?
Steel with an ANSI 61 gray painted finish, which is the standard gray used across Eaton B-Line wireway and most industrial control enclosures. It will match existing ANSI 61 gray runs and panels without repainting.
8) How much does the 8 inch wireway transposition elbow weigh for overhead mounting?
13.46 lb. For an overhead 8 x 8 run that is light enough for one installer to set, but the elbow still needs its own support near the turn rather than hanging off the adjoining trough sections alone.
