B-Line Eaton series wireway elbow fitting, Lay-in, 90° elbow, side opening, 1, Steel, ANSI 61 gray painted finish, 8" X 8"

Yes, the 88 HSLSIDE is sized for 8 inch by 8 inch lay-in wireway. Its height and depth are both 8 inches, matching the trough cross section, so it bolts into an 8 x 8 run without adapters. If your trough is 4 x 4, 6 x 6 or 12 x 12, you need the elbow in that size instead, not this one.

No. The 88 HSLSIDE is NEMA 1 only, which is indoor, dry location general purpose enclosure protection against incidental contact and falling dirt. For rooftop, exterior or washdown runs you need NEMA 3R or NEMA 4 raintight wireway and matching fittings, not this one.

A side opening 90 degree elbow turns the run horizontally, in the plane of the wireway side. Use it where the trough has to change direction left or right along a wall or across a panel board lineup. If your run has to turn up or down, that is a different elbow configuration. The 88 HSLSIDE is the side opening version, in steel with a lay-in cover so conductors drop in rather than being pulled through.

ANSI 61 gray painted steel. ANSI 61 gray is the standard finish across Eaton B-Line wireway and most electrical enclosures, so it matches existing gray trough, gauges and panel enclosures in the same lineup. There is no stainless or unpainted option on this model.

Order Eaton B-Line part number 88 HSLSIDE. That covers the 8 x 8 inch, NEMA 1, steel, ANSI 61 gray, 90 degree side opening lay-in elbow. There is a single configuration, so there are no finish or size suffixes to specify.

It weighs 9.41 lb, and the overall width across the fitting is 12.753 inches. Light enough for one person to set, but plan trapeze or strut support at the turn since the elbow adds load at the point where two trough sections meet.
