Overview

The ABB T58 1-1/2 inch Form 8 T conduit body is a ferrous conduit fitting designed for Rigid and IMC conduit systems. Constructed from durable gray iron, the T58 provides a robust foundation for electrical installations requiring conduit integrity. The exterior features a zinc plating and baked-on epoxy powder coat, delivering superior resistance to corrosion and environmental degradation. Internally, the conduit body incorporates ABB's proprietary BlueKote coating, which enhances corrosion protection and reduces wire-pulling friction by up to 30% compared to uncoated ferrous bodies. The Form 8 configuration includes a removable cover with gasket and screws, allowing easy access for conductor splicing, pulling, or future maintenance. With a hub size of 1-1/2 inches, the T58 accommodates standard conductor counts in rigid or IMC conduit pathways. The T58 is part of ABB's BlueKote conduit body series, which offers triple-layer protection for ferrous conduit bodies—two layers of epoxy coating plus the internal BlueKote surface treatment. This combination ensures long-term reliability in industrial, commercial, and outdoor electrical applications where conduit protection is critical. The T58's dimensions are 10.38 inches (263.53 mm) in length, 2.78 inches (70.64 mm) in width, and 4.00 inches (101.60 mm) in height, with a volume capacity of 46.50 cubic inches (762.00 cubic centimeters).
