Thomas & Betts X50M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What conduit size does the Thomas & Betts X50M conduit body thread onto?
The X50M takes 1/2 inch conduit. The hubs are tapered NPT threads, so they mate with standard 1/2 inch rigid or IMC conduit threads.
2) Can I pour the X50M conduit body into concrete?
Yes. The Series 35 bodies are rated suitable for use in concrete, and the X50M is malleable iron finished with zinc plating plus an aluminum acrylic coating, which is what makes the embedded application acceptable.
3) Does the X50M come with a cover and gasket, or do I order those separately?
Covers are a separate item on the Series 35 line. They come in iron or stamped steel, both zinc-plated, and ship with stainless steel captive screws so the hardware doesn't drop out on a ladder. Specify the cover to match the X body size when you order the fitting.
4) Is the Thomas & Betts X50M UL listed?
It carries UL file E2969 and CSA certification, which is what most inspectors and institutional specs want to see on a conduit body.
5) How much room does the X50M need in the ceiling or wall cavity?
Plan around outer dimensions of 9.5 x 5.75 x 4.25 inches, and allow clearance on top of that for removing the cover and pulling conductors. Each body weighs 1.13 lbs, so it's light enough to hang off the conduit run itself in typical support spacing.
6) What exact part number do I order for the 1/2 inch Thomas & Betts Series 35 Type X body?
Order Thomas & Betts X50M. That is the complete manufacturer part number for the 1/2 inch Series 35 Type X malleable iron conduit body; there are no finish or trim suffixes to add.
7) Can I use the X50M as the outlet box to hang a light fixture?
Yes, Series 35 bodies are intended to act as mounting outlets for wiring devices and lighting fixtures, so the X50M can serve that role on a 1/2 inch run. It also doubles as the pull point during conductor installation and leaves the conductors accessible later for maintenance or system changes.
