Ocal PVC-Coated Type TB/TX Conduit Body, Form 7/8
The Ocal PVC-Coated Conduit Body family gives electricians a dependable access and pull point for rigid conduit systems, offered in two configurations to match the job at hand: the Type TB Body on the Form 7 platform, sized for 1/2" trade size conduit runs, and the Type X Body on the Form 8 platform, sized for 3/4" trade size conduit runs and carrying a UL-4X listing for demanding corrosive environments. Both configurations share Ocal's signature corrosion-resistant, PVC-coated dark gray exterior construction, providing the access needed for pulling, splicing, and redirecting conductors within a rigid conduit run without disturbing the surrounding raceway. Ocal is widely recognized in the industry for its coated conduit body and fitting systems, and this family carries that same durable dark gray coated appearance across both size and body-type options, making it a natural fit for installations where long-term protection against moisture, chemicals, and corrosive atmospheres is a priority. Contractors select the option that matches their conduit run size and code requirements, then rely on the shared Form 7 or Form 8 platform hardware for a complete, code-compliant conduit body assembly.
Key Features
- Trade Size Range: Available in 1/2" (Type TB, Form 7) and 3/4" (Type X, Form 8) to match standard rigid conduit sizing.
- Body Type Options: Choose Type TB configuration on the Form 7 platform or Type X configuration on the Form 8 platform, each providing a dedicated pull/access point along the conduit run.
- UL-4X Listing: The Form 8 Type X option carries a UL-4X listing, supporting use in environments requiring enhanced corrosion protection.
- Finish: Dark gray exterior consistent with Ocal's corrosion-resistant, PVC-coated conduit body line, suited to demanding wash-down and corrosive environments.
- Form 7 / Form 8 Platforms: Designed to integrate with standard Form 7 or Form 8 covers, gaskets, and hardware for a complete conduit body assembly.
- Rigid Construction: Built to withstand the mechanical stresses of conduit installation, support, and conductor pulling.
- Directional Access: Type TB and Type X configurations simplify conductor routing and future maintenance without cutting into the conduit run.

Ocal TB17-G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What trade sizes does the Ocal Type TB/TX PVC-coated conduit body come in?
Two options. The Type TB body on the Form 7 platform handles 1/2 inch trade size rigid conduit, and the Type X body on the Form 8 platform handles 3/4 inch. Order part TB17-G for the 1/2 inch and X28-4X-G for the 3/4 inch. There is no single body that covers both sizes, so match the part to the run.
2) Which Ocal conduit body is UL-4X listed for a wash-down or corrosive area?
The UL-4X listing is on the Form 8 Type X body, part X28-4X-G, in 3/4 inch. If your spec calls for UL-4X, that is the one to order. The 1/2 inch Form 7 Type TB shares the same PVC-coated dark gray construction but the 4X listing is called out on the Form 8 Type X option.
3) What is the difference between the Ocal Type TB conduit body and a SEPCO Type LL or LR outlet body?
The Ocal TB17-G is a Type TB body built from PVC-coated steel with a dark gray corrosion-resistant exterior, used as a pull outlet for conductors being installed. The SEPCO LLA is a Type LL conduit outlet body and the SEPCO LRA is a Type LR body, both die-cast copper-free aluminum. The difference is body style and material: TB gives a tee-style access point, while LL and LR are elbow-style bodies with the opening on the left or right side respectively, and the copper-free aluminum construction is a different corrosion approach than a PVC-coated steel shell.
4) I need a conduit body for a wash-down area that requires UL-4X. Is the SEPCO aluminum body an alternative?
For a UL-4X requirement, the Ocal Type X body X28-4X-G on the Form 8 platform in 3/4 inch carries the UL-4X listing and uses the PVC-coated steel construction intended for corrosive and wash-down service. The SEPCO LLA and LRA bodies are die-cast copper-free aluminum outlet bodies in Type LL and Type LR styles; copper-free aluminum resists corrosion by material rather than by a coated jacket. If the specification names UL-4X explicitly, order the Ocal X28-4X-G.
5) Is the Ocal conduit body steel or aluminum?
PVC-coated steel, finished dark gray. That is a different construction from copper-free die-cast aluminum outlet bodies such as the SEPCO LLA Type LL or LRA Type LR, which rely on the aluminum alloy itself rather than a PVC coating for corrosion resistance. For coated rigid conduit systems where the raceway is already PVC-coated, the Ocal body keeps the coating continuous through the fitting.
6) Can I add a pull point to an existing rigid conduit run without replacing the raceway?
That is what these bodies are for. The Ocal Type TB and Type X bodies give you a dedicated access point for pulling, splicing, and redirecting conductors inside a rigid conduit run without disturbing the surrounding raceway, and they make later maintenance possible without cutting into the conduit. Size the body to the trade size of the run, 1/2 inch or 3/4 inch.
7) If I am standardizing a facility on coated fittings, can I mix SEPCO LL and LR bodies into an Ocal coated run?
The Ocal TB and X bodies are PVC-coated steel with a dark gray exterior, matching the coated appearance across the rest of a coated conduit system. The SEPCO LLA Type LL and LRA Type LR bodies are die-cast copper-free aluminum, so they will not match the coated dark gray finish of the Ocal bodies in a standardized coated installation. Where the spec calls for a coated system end to end, stay with the Ocal bodies and the Form 7 or Form 8 covers, gaskets, and hardware that go with them.
8) Does the dark gray Ocal conduit body match the rest of our PVC-coated conduit fittings?
Yes, the finish is the same dark gray PVC coating used across Ocal's coated conduit body and fitting line, so it reads consistently with other Ocal coated fittings already on a facility's raceway. Useful if you are standardizing a plant or wash-down area on one coated system.
