Eaton Specification Sheet - LB45 MT
The LB45 MT Conduit Outlet Body combines EMT-Rigid/IMC in a single enclosure. This feature reduces field assembly time by eliminating separate adapters and multiple fittings, while delivering consistent mounting patterns that improve installation quality. It is particularly advantageous in tight cabinet spaces and on equipment with mixed-conduit requirements, enabling faster wiring runs and fewer parts to track. The business impact is measurable through shortened project timelines and reduced labor costs, with easier maintenance due to standardized connections. Applications include control panels, machine enclosures, and outdoor cabinets where space is at a premium and reliability matters. The design supports long-term sustainability by simplifying future upgrades and extensions with Series 5 accessories.

FAQs
To install the LB45 MT, align the LB-shaped body with the conduit openings and secure with compatible fasteners for EMT, Rigid, or IMC as permitted by NEC/CEC guidelines. Ensure the 1-1/4" trade size is used, tighten fittings per manufacturer recommendations, and verify a proper enclosure seal where required. The process is streamlined by Series 5 compatibility, reducing part count and simplifying stocking. Always follow local codes and consult the Eaton installation sheet for torque and mounting patterns.
Yes. The LB45 MT is part of the Condulet Series 5 lineup and is designed specifically for a 1-1/4" trade size. This compatibility ensures consistent mounting patterns, predictable enclosure fitment, and straightforward accessory matching across the Series 5 catalog. Using compatible Series 5 components minimizes installation time and inventory management while preserving regulatory compliance.
LB45 MT meets NEC/CEC standards for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and carries UL-based Canadian certification, supporting cross-border installations. This combination helps mitigate regulatory risk in manufacturing facilities and ensures compliance with common electrical codes in North America, simplifying approvals for new builds, retrofits, and service upgrades.
The LB45 MT measures 7.79 inches in length, 3.5 inches in height, and 2.49 inches in width, with an approximate weight of 1.4 pounds. The compact, lightweight design aids installation in tight spaces, reduces shipping costs, and eases handling on crowded control panels. These dimensions also align with Series 5 mounting patterns to ensure smooth integration with existing conduits.
Using LB45 MT delivers tangible ROI through faster installations, reduced labor, and simplified maintenance. The copper-free aluminum construction offers corrosion resistance and weight savings, while EMT-Rigid/IMC compatibility reduces parts and complexity. NEC/CEC compliance and Canadian certification lower regulatory risk, making it easier to manage cross-border projects and extend the product’s service life in demanding production environments.
