Thomas & Betts ASLB-3 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the ASLB-3 come with the cover and gasket, or do I order those separately?
Cover and gasket ship with the body. The cover screws are retained deep slotted stainless steel, so they stay in the cover when you back them out and resist rust on an outdoor service run. Nothing else is needed to close the body up.
2) Can I use the ASLB-3 with PVC service entrance conduit?
Not directly. The ASLB-3 is specified for rigid and IMC conduit, so a PVC run would need a transition to threaded metal conduit at the body. If the whole run is PVC, a PVC fitting such as the Cantex 5 Series service entrance head is the matching material.
3) My service riser is PVC, not rigid metal conduit. What should I use instead of the ASLB-3?
The ASLB-3 is specified for rigid/IMC conduit and is die cast aluminum, so it is matched to a metallic riser. For a PVC run, the Cantex 5133671 is a PVC service entrance head in the 5 Series, which solvent-welds into nonmetallic raceway rather than threading onto a metal hub like the ASLB-3's 1 inch hub.
4) What are the dimensions of the Thomas & Betts ASLB-3 conduit body?
The ASLB-3 is dimensioned 4-1/4 (A), 3-7/8 (B), 1-3/4 (C), 2-3/16 (D), 1-3/4 (E) and 1-1/16 (F) inches, with 5.5 cubic inches of wire volume. That volume is the number to check against your conductor fill before you commit to this size body.
5) Will a 1 inch LB conduit body mount flat against a wall for a service entrance?
Yes. The ASLB-3 body is built to mount flush to the wall, with the cover facing out so you can open it for wire pulling after the conduit is strapped. The throat is smooth, which matters when you are pulling large service conductors through the 90.
6) Is the ASLB-3 body aluminum or steel, and will it hold up outdoors?
Die cast aluminum body, with stainless steel cover screws. Aluminum will not rust on an exposed service entrance, and the gasketed cover keeps weather out of the wire compartment. It is also RoHS compliant and UL listed.
7) Do I have to buy ASLB-3 bodies in a case quantity?
Sold each, but ordered in multiples of 5. The inner pack is 5 and the full carton is 25, so a one-off replacement still comes as a five pack. For MRO stock on a multi-building service, the 25 carton is the standardizing quantity.
8) Which gives me access to the conductors for pulling wire, the ASLB-3 or the Cantex 5133671 head?
The ASLB-3 does. It is a service entrance body with a removable cover and gasket, retained deep slotted stainless steel cover screws, and a smooth throat for easy wire pulling, with 5.5 cubic inches of volume. The Cantex 5133671 is a service entrance head, which terminates the top of the raceway rather than serving as a pull point with a reopenable cover.
