Thomas & Betts LB38-4X-G PVC-Coated LB Conduit Body, Form 8 with Cover, OCAL Series

The Thomas & Betts LB38-4X-G is a PVC-coated LB-style conduit body from the OCAL product line, engineered in the industry-standard Form 8 configuration for raceway systems that require added protection against corrosion. This conduit body and cover assembly features an exterior PVC coating that forms a durable barrier against moisture, chemicals, and harsh washdown exposure, making it well suited for demanding industrial and outdoor conduit installations, including chemical-processing plants, wastewater facilities, food and beverage washdown areas, and coastal or marine electrical systems. As an LB-type body, the LB38-4X-G provides a 90-degree change in conduit direction while offering accessible interior space for pulling and splicing conductors without adding extra fittings to the run. It ships complete with a matching PVC-coated cover, giving contractors a fully enclosed, corrosion-resistant assembly ready for installation in the harshest conduit environments.

Key Features

  • LB Conduit Body Style: Delivers a 90-degree access point along the conduit run, allowing conductors to be pulled and spliced without the need for additional fittings.
  • Form 8 Configuration: Manufactured to the industry-standard Form 8 conduit body configuration for consistent fit and interchangeability across compatible conduit systems.
  • PVC-Coated Construction: An exterior PVC coating adds a rugged, corrosion-resistant layer of protection against moisture, chemicals, and harsh washdown or outdoor environments.
  • Corrosion-Resistant Design: The PVC coating helps extend service life in environments where uncoated metal fittings would otherwise degrade quickly, reducing long-term maintenance and replacement needs.
  • Included PVC-Coated Cover: Ships with a matching PVC-coated cover to complete a fully enclosed, corrosion-resistant conduit body assembly.
  • OCAL Product Line: Part of the Thomas & Betts OCAL family of PVC-coated electrical fittings, purpose-built for corrosive and highly demanding industrial environments.
  • Model Designation LB38-4X-G: Factory model code identifying this specific LB conduit body configuration within the OCAL PVC-coated product family.

Ocal LB38-4X-G – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What trade sizes does the Ocal LB38-4X-G PVC-coated LB conduit body come in?
Two orderable configurations: the LB38-4X-G is the 90 degree LB elbow body in 1 inch trade size, and the T58-4X-G is a tee body in 1-1/2 inch trade size. If you need a 90 degree pull point in the run, the LB38-4X-G is the one to order; the tee is for a three-way branch.
2) Does the Ocal LB38-4X-G come with a cover, or do I order that separately?
The cover is included. The LB38-4X-G ships as a conduit body with a matching PVC-coated cover, so the assembly is fully enclosed out of the box with no separate cover or coated gasket line item to add.
3) Is a PVC-coated LB body like the Ocal LB38-4X-G worth it over a plain malleable iron LB?
It depends on the environment. In dry indoor runs an uncoated iron LB does the same job for less. The PVC coating on the OCAL body earns its keep where uncoated metal corrodes fast: chemical processing, wastewater and water treatment, food and beverage washdown bays, and coastal or marine installations. If you are coating one fitting in a run, coat the whole run, since an uncoated body becomes the failure point.
4) What does Form 8 mean on this Ocal LB conduit body, and will it fit my existing covers?
Form 8 is the standard conduit body configuration the LB38-4X-G is built to, which is what gives it consistent fit and interchangeability across compatible conduit systems. Note that it ships with its own matching PVC-coated cover, and on a coated system you want to keep the coated cover rather than mixing in an uncoated one.
5) When should I use an LB conduit body instead of an LL, LR, or a sweep elbow?
An LB turns the run 90 degrees with the opening on the back, which is the usual choice coming out of a wall and down or up along it. LL and LR turn left or right with the opening on the side. The reason to use a body rather than a sweep elbow is access: the removable cover gives you a point to pull and splice conductors without adding fittings to the run. Use a sweep where you need a large-radius bend for conductor pulling and no access.
6) Can I use the Ocal LB38-4X-G in an outdoor washdown area that gets hosed down daily?
Yes. The exterior PVC coating is there to resist moisture, chemicals, and harsh washdown exposure, and the body ships with a matching coated cover so the whole assembly is protected. It is specified for food and beverage washdown areas and outdoor industrial raceway. Keep the coating intact during install, as nicks and wrench marks in the PVC are where corrosion starts.
7) Will the PVC-coated LB fitting thread onto standard rigid conduit?
The OCAL LB body is a threaded conduit body for rigid metal conduit runs, sized by trade size: 1 inch on the LB38-4X-G and 1-1/2 inch on the tee. On a coated system, pair it with PVC-coated rigid conduit so the coating is continuous through the fitting; threading it onto bare galvanized rigid works mechanically but leaves exposed metal at the joint in a corrosive area.
