Red Dot DALB-5-CG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Red Dot DALB-5-CG conduit body work with rigid metal conduit, or is it for EMT?
The DALB-5-CG is built for rigid and IMC conduit, with threaded hubs to match. If the run is EMT, you need an EMT-style conduit body or a transition fitting instead, since threadless EMT ends will not thread into these hubs.
2) What size conduit does the Red Dot DALB-5-CG LB body take?
It's a 1-1/2 inch body, so it lands on a 1-1/2 inch rigid or IMC run. Larger or smaller runs need the matching size in the series rather than a reducing bushing in the hub.
3) Does the DALB-5-CG come with a cover and gasket, or do I order those separately?
Cover and gasket are included with the DALB-5-CG, so nothing else is needed to close it up. On the LB style you still supply your own conduit, locknuts if your method calls for them, and any wire.
4) What is an LB conduit body used for on an exterior wall penetration?
An LB body makes a 90 degree back-to-the-wall turn, typically where a vertical conduit riser enters a building. It gives you a removable cover opening to pull conductors through the bend instead of fighting them around a sweep. The DALB-5-CG is the 1-1/2 inch version with cover and gasket.
5) Is the Red Dot DALB-5-CG metal or plastic?
Die cast aluminum body, not plastic or PVC. That makes it the right match for an aluminum or galvanized rigid/IMC run; on a PVC system use a PVC conduit body so the materials and solvent-weld sockets match.
6) Is the gasketed cover on this conduit body enough for an outdoor install?
The DALB-5-CG ships with a gasketed cover, which is what seals the opening against weather at the cover joint. Aluminum die cast construction holds up outdoors. Seal the threaded hubs per your installation method and confirm the enclosure type required by the inspector for your location.
7) What part number should I give my supplier for the 1-1/2 inch Red Dot LB with cover and gasket?
Order Red Dot DALB-5-CG. One model, one configuration: 1-1/2 inch LB body in die cast aluminum, cover and gasket included.
