In modern electrical installations, Form 7 conduit bodies play a crucial role in ensuring safe, accessible, and flexible conduit runs. These fittings are designed to connect and redirect electrical conduits while providing a weatherproof enclosure for wire pulling, splicing, and maintenance.
As a professional manufacturer and exporter of Form 7 conduit bodies in China, OMEJA CASTING supplies a full range of Form 7 conduit bodies LR, T, LL, and LB, made from die-cast aluminum, malleable iron, or stainless steel. Each product meets UL 514A, CSA, and NEMA 4/4X standards, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor electrical systems.
Form 7 conduit bodies are part of a standardized conduit fitting family used for connecting rigid conduit (RMC) or intermediate metal conduit (IMC).
They provide:
Access to conductors for maintenance and inspection
Smooth directional changes in conduit runs
Protection against dust, moisture, and impact
Each body features a removable gasketed cover that allows electricians to easily access the interior wiring without dismantling the conduit system.

Material | Die-cast aluminum / Malleable iron | Malleable iron / Aluminum |
Cover & Gasket | Flat, screw-on type | Raised cover for more capacity |
Applications | General commercial & industrial | High-capacity or larger wire volume |
Standards | UL 514A / CSA C22.2 | UL 514B / CSA C22.2 |
Conduit Types | Rigid / IMC | Rigid / IMC |
Form 7 conduit bodies are ideal for most standard wiring layouts, balancing cost-efficiency, accessibility, and durability.
OMEJA CASTING offers various material configurations to suit different environmental and mechanical requirements.
Material | Finish | Key Benefits |
Malleable Iron | Hot-dip galvanized or epoxy-coated | High strength and corrosion resistance |
Die-Cast Aluminum | Natural aluminum / Powder-coated | Lightweight and corrosion-proof |
Stainless Steel (SS304 / SS316) | Polished or passivated | Superior resistance to salt and chemical exposure |
All conduit bodies come with stainless steel cover screws and neoprene gaskets to maintain a weatherproof seal.
Each conduit body shape serves a specific purpose in the conduit system. Below is a breakdown of the most common types — LB, LL, LR, and T.
LB conduit bodies are among the most widely used types in Form 7 series. They have an opening on the back (flat side) and are used for 90° conduit bends where the conduit runs from a wall and turns outward.
Applications:
Wall-mounted conduit systems
Outdoor electrical distribution
Service entrance conduit runs
Advantages:
Easy wire pulling from the rear
Compact design for tight spaces
Maintains full wiring protection in corner installations
LL conduit bodies feature an opening on the left-hand side (when facing the cover) and are used when the conduit needs to turn 90° to the left.
Typical Uses:
Industrial wiring where space is limited
Conduit runs that route around left corners
Electrical control panel installations
Benefits:
Simplifies left-turn connections
Reduces wire bending stress
Gasketed cover ensures weatherproof protection
LR conduit bodies are mirror images of LL types, with an opening on the right-hand side.
They are often used in right-angle conduit runs, especially in commercial buildings and equipment connections.
Applications:
Machinery and equipment connections
Corner conduit routing in mechanical rooms
Junctions for outdoor control boxes
Features:
Facilitates wiring access for right bends
Durable construction for long service life
Compatible with both RMC and IMC conduit
T conduit bodies have three conduit openings arranged in a “T” configuration — one on each end and one at the middle of the run.
This design allows a branch conduit connection, enabling electricians to split the wiring in multiple directions.
Applications:
Distribution and branch conduit systems
Motor control centers and switchgear
Complex wiring networks
Advantages:
Enables branching from the main conduit
Provides easy access to three conduit lines
Strong cast body withstands mechanical impact
Trade Size (inches) | Material Options | Compatible Conduit Type | Body Style Available |

¾" | Aluminum / Iron | Rigid / IMC | LB, LL, LR, T |
1" | Aluminum / Iron / SS | Rigid / IMC | LB, LL, LR, T |
1-¼" | Aluminum / Iron | Rigid / IMC | LB, LL, LR, T |
1-½" | Aluminum / Iron | Rigid / IMC | LB, LL, LR, T |
2" | Aluminum / Iron / SS | Rigid / IMC | LB, LL, LR, T |
2-½" – 4" | Malleable Iron | Rigid / IMC | LB, T |
