Stainless Steel Conduit Body TB Type UL 514A

Premium SS316 Tee-Type Conduit Outlet Bodies for Three-Way Raceway Connections

TSI INOX Conduits presents our premium Stainless Steel Conduit Body TB Type, a high-performance outlet body engineered for demanding electrical installations requiring superior corrosion resistance, hygienic design, and reliable access to conductors. Manufactured from premium SS316 (CF8M) stainless steel and featuring a stunning mirror polished finish, our TB-type conduit bodies provide durable, sanitary access points for pulling, splicing, and maintaining conductors in food processing, pharmaceutical, chemical, and marine environments.

The TB (Tee-Branch) configuration features a rectangular body with three hubs arranged in a "T" shape, providing a straight-through run with a 90° branch and a removable cover for convenient conductor access. This tee-type conduit body is commonly used for pulling conductors, changing the direction of a conduit run, and providing access for splices and taps. Whether you are creating pull points for long conduit runs, providing access for conductor maintenance, tapping branch conduit runs, or making tee connections in your electrical raceway, TSI's stainless steel conduit bodies deliver the quality, durability, and code compliance your project demands.

Stainless Steel Conduit Body TB Type - UL 514A

Key Benefits

01

Superior Corrosion Resistance

The combination of 316 stainless steel and mirror polished finish provides exceptional corrosion resistance in the most demanding environments, including chemical plants, offshore platforms, food processing facilities, and marine installations. Designed to meet stringent sanitary conditions, our stainless steel bodies ensure long-lasting performance in aggressive environments.

02

Hygienic Design

The mirror polished surface and stainless steel construction create a sanitary conduit body suitable for food-grade and pharmaceutical applications, where bacterial growth and contamination must be minimized.

03

Complete Ground Continuity

The tapered NPT threads and all-metal construction provide a reliable, low-impedance equipment grounding conductor path, maintaining electrical continuity throughout the raceway system.

04

Professional Installation

The conduit bodies are designed to match conduit size for neat, compact installations, ensuring a professional appearance and consistent performance across the entire raceway system.

05

Future-Ready Access

Conduit outlet bodies provide easy access for future system changes, modifications, and upgrades, reducing downtime and simplifying maintenance.

06

Tee-Branch Versatility

The TB configuration with side cover access is ideal for installations requiring straight-through runs with a 90° branch, providing a versatile solution for complex raceway layouts.

07

Extra Wiring Capacity

The Form 8 design and flat-back construction provide enhanced internal volume for heavier conductors and more wiring space.

316 Stainless Steel (SS316 / CF8M)

Our conduit bodies are manufactured from premium 316 stainless steel (cast CF8M), providing:

  • Superior corrosion resistance – Exceptional protection against chlorides, acids, and saline atmospheres
  • Molybdenum-enhanced durability – Resists pitting and crevice corrosion in aggressive environments
  • High-temperature stability – Maintains structural integrity in demanding conditions
  • Hygienic properties – Suitable for food processing, pharmaceutical, and sanitary applications
  • Long service life – Eliminates lifecycle costs associated with corrosion-related failures

Applications: Versatile Access Points for Conduit Systems

TSI stainless steel conduit bodies serve multiple essential functions in electrical raceway systems, including:

Pull Outlets for Conductor Installation

TB-type conduit outlet bodies provide convenient access points for pulling conductors through long conduit runs, reducing installation time and preventing damage to wire insulation during the pulling process. Smooth, rounded integral bushings in hubs protect conductor insulation.

Access for Splicing and Taps

TB conduit bodies offer dedicated openings for making splices and taps in conductors, enabling branch circuits and connections without requiring large junction boxes . The accessible wiring chamber provides a spacious location to make splices.

Conduit Connection and Branching

Conduit bodies facilitate the connection of conduit sections and provide taps for branch conduit runs, enabling complex raceway configurations from a single access point.

Straight-Through Runs with Branch

The T-type design provides straight-through conduit runs with a 90° branch while maintaining accessibility, eliminating the need for separate fittings and junction boxes.

Tee Connections

The TB-type design provides straight-through conduit runs with a 90° branch—making tee connections for conduit—while maintaining accessibility, eliminating the need for separate fittings and junction boxes.

Maintenance and Future System Changes

Conduit outlet bodies provide critical access to conductors for ongoing maintenance, troubleshooting, inspection, and future system modifications.

Flat-Back Mounting

The flat-back design allows extra wiring capacity and permits the fitting to be mounted flush and snug against flat surfaces for more stable installation.

Compliance and Certifications

Our TSI stainless steel conduit bodies meet or exceed the following international standards:

UL 514A – Metallic Outlet Boxes

UL Listed – For Canada and US

CSA 22.2 No. 18 – Outlet Boxes

ANSI/NFPA 70 – National Electrical Code (NEC) – Outlet Bodies

NEMA FB-1 – Fittings, Cast Metal Boxes, and Conduit Bodies

Raintight – When installed with cover and gasket

Suitable for wet locations

RoHS Compliant – Restriction of Hazardous Substances

Key Features

Mirror Polished Surface

The mirror polished (#4 polished) finish on both the body and cover provides:

  • Superior corrosion resistance – The smooth surface minimizes crevice corrosion and bacterial adhesion
  • Easy cleaning – Sanitary design suitable for CIP (clean-in-place) and SIP (sterilize-in-place) systems
  • Aesthetic appeal – Professional appearance for visible installations in food-grade and pharmaceutical facilities
  • Enhanced hygiene – Smooth surface resists bacterial growth and simplifies sanitation

Form 8 Body Design

Our Form 8 conduit bodies provide more room for heavier conductors, accommodating larger gauge wires and facilitating easier pulling and splicing operations compared to standard designs. The generous internal volume provides ample space for wiring connections and splices.

Precision Tapered Threads

Conduit hubs feature NPT (National Pipe Taper) tapered threads, ensuring:

  • Rigid, leak-resistant joints
  • Excellent ground continuity for protection of wire insulation
  • Secure connections with standard rigid conduit and fittings
  • Reliable electrical grounding path

Durable Cover Assembly

Two cover screws are provided on all sizes to ensure a tight cover and gasket assembly. The cover features a dome shape for added strength and extra wiring room, accommodating larger conductors and facilitating easier splices.

Raintight Construction

When installed with the cover and gasket, our conduit bodies are raintight, providing reliable protection against moisture ingress in wet and outdoor locations.
