The Cantex Type T conduit body provides pull, splice, and tap access for conductors in a non-metallic PVC conduit system while letting the run change direction or branch. Three threaded hubs - two opposing on the in-line axis and one perpendicular at the center - let you split a circuit or feed a branch without breaking the conduit run, and the removable cover keeps the splice accessible for inspection.

• Trade size: 1/2" - fits Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 rigid PVC conduit of the matching trade size
• Configuration: Type T (three hubs in a T-shape, two opposing in-line plus one perpendicular center)
• Material: Rigid PVC, will not rust, corrode, or react with most chemicals encountered in residential, commercial, or agricultural service
• Service: UV-resistant compound rated for direct sunlight; approved for above-ground and underground applications
• Listings: UL Listed for use with Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 rigid PVC conduit
• MPN: 5133563U
• Cover and gasket sold separately - order matching Cantex blank cover plus neoprene gasket for the trade size

Use Case: Residential branch circuits and lighting controls - 12-14 AWG conductor splices, switch and outlet feeds, and pull points on Schedule 40 PVC runs through walls and basements.

Tip: Solvent-weld the conduit to each hub using a PVC all-purpose cement applied with the cement manufacturer s primer. Let each joint cure per the cement label (typically 30 minutes at 60 deg F or warmer before energizing the circuit). When installing the cover, seat the neoprene gasket flat without stretching or pinching it - the gasket seals the splice from condensation and dust, which is what extends the body s service life in outdoor and below-grade installations.
