Copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight and corrosion risk, making handling and field assembly simpler for technicians. The BC8 SA weighs about 5.9 lb, yet delivers robust protection for conduits in demanding environments. This material choice also simplifies painting and coating workflows on exposed installations. For installers, the lighter weight translates to less fatigue on long runs and quicker commissioning, while maintaining impact resistance and mechanical integrity. In the field, fewer corrosion concerns mean longer intervals between maintenance checks, reducing total operating costs. With a 3" trade size and an 18.38-inch length, the unit accommodates heavier conductors and provides ample pull-through space. The 4.38 inch height and 4.25 inch width offer a compact profile suitable for crowded enclosures, while still allowing easy access for wire pulls and inspection. The 3-inch designation aligns with common install sizes, supporting consistent fittings across a plant. The shape is optimized for quick alignment with existing conduit runs and pulling elbows, limiting misfits during installation. Durable copper-free aluminum is compatible with standard Condulet B components and pulling elbows, and Eaton’s technical resources—such as bend radius and cubic capacity charts—help design teams plan layouts to avoid congestion. Field installers benefit from documented mounting dimensions and clear catalog references, reducing guesswork when selecting accessory components. The body’s C-shaped profile improves clearance in tight spaces and simplifies ingress and egress for conductors. In addition, the Mogul configuration provides additional space for large-diameter conductors, supporting high-capacity feeds. This combination minimizes the need for rework and accelerates project timelines. NEC/CEC compliance is baked in, with Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations classification supporting safe operation in general plant spaces. UL certification documentation for Canada and the US backs the product’s reliability, supporting procurement requirements and supplier audits. From a maintenance and total cost of ownership perspective, choosing a copper-free aluminum Condulet reduces corrosion-related maintenance and extends service life. The modular design also aids replacements or upgrades, minimizing downtime when upgrading control panels or machine safety systems.

FAQs
BC8 SA is designed for restricted enclosures and busy panels, providing a compact 4.25" width and 4.38" height while maintaining accessible conduit entry. When installing, verify alignment with existing conduit runs and ensure the 3" trade size matches the conductors being routed. Use standard mounting holes and compatible pulling elbows to minimize field adaptation and scheduling delays.
The BC8 SA carries NEC/CEC alignment for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, ensuring safe operation in typical plant spaces. Its copper-free aluminum body resists corrosion in general environments, supporting longer service life and reduced maintenance. Always confirm local code adoptment and consult the bend radius and cubic capacity charts for accurate cable fills.
Yes. With its 18.38" length and 3" trade size, the BC8 SA provides ample conduit access and space for larger conductors typical of machine enclosures. Its C-shaped mogul design facilitates pulling and routing in compact panel layouts, while remaining compatible with standard Condulet B components and field-installed accessories.
Documentation includes NEC/CEC certification references, Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location classification, and UL certification reports for Canada and the US. Eaton provides specification sheets and technical bulletins to confirm bend radii, cubic capacity, and compatibility with pulling elbows, supporting QA and supplier audits.
Copper-free aluminum reduces weight and corrosion tendencies, lowering handling effort, installation time, and maintenance downtime. The rugged construction extends service life in typical industrial environments, translating to lower lifecycle costs, fewer replacements, and faster commissioning in panel and enclosure upgrades.
