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: Multi-Directional Access Points for Conduit Systems

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

Installation

Four-Way Conduit Intersections

The X-type design features four hubs arranged in a cross configuration, enabling multi-directional conduit connections that simplify complex raceway layouts. The X configuration limits the amount of additional fittings needed on a project as wires can be fed through and then out in several directions.

taps

Pull Outlets for Conductor Installation

X-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. They can be used as pulling fittings for efficient conductor installation.

Connection

Access for Splicing and Taps

X 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.

90° Degree

Conduit Connection and Routing

Conduit bodies facilitate the connection of conduit sections and provide multi-directional routing options, enabling complex raceway configurations from a single access point.

Maintenance

Maintenance and Future System Changes

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

installation

Changing Direction of Conduit Runs

The X-type design is ideal for making directional changes in conduit runs with maximum flexibility, reducing the number of fittings required.

installation

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

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

NSF/ANSI 169 – Certified for food equipment applications

Raintight – When installed with cover and gasket

IP69 Rated – Dust-tight and resistant to high-pressure water jets (when applicable)

RoHS Compliant – Restriction of Hazardous Substances

Key Features

Mirror Polished Surface

The mirror polished (#4 polished / brite finish) 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.

Four-Hub X Configuration

The four-hub X configuration allows wires to be routed in multiple directions from a single access point, simplifying installation and reducing the number of fittings required for complex raceway layouts.

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

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 location.

Flat Back Design

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.
