Bell End is what I call them, maybe thats why I can never get them without a hassle. I go to several diffent supply houses, and none of the counter or will-call guys know where or what they are, I have to walk back and get them myself. "Oh those things"

I wonder what kind of spacing that conduit has below the surface?

Around here, most underground or concrete encased PVC conduit runs are turned up with GRC elbows and appropriate bushings (usually grounding type). If we were to have runs terminated like this...we would likely have to break up the concrete and redo the ends with GRC 90's.

I'll defer to electure's experience. I've never been cut by PVC, but I agree that ANY fitting is more sure to have a rounded edge.

These work well too.
(The link is to the EMT version because something is wrong with the page for PVC)

Nick I do not see a temp listing on these.

I am not sure they are listed for the application in Scott's picture.

They are great for voice / data raceways.
