Overview

This ABB Installation Products 1-1/2 inch chase nipple (SKU: 1946) is constructed from durable malleable iron, providing a reliable connection point for rigid and intermediate metal conduit (IMC). The integrated nylon insulation serves a critical function: it protects the conduit and its contained wiring from abrasion and damage caused by metal-to-metal contact. This feature is particularly important in applications where vibration or movement might occur, or where maintaining the integrity of the wire insulation is paramount. Designed for secure and efficient installation, this chase nipple facilitates the transition from conduit to junction boxes, enclosures, or other electrical equipment. Its robust malleable iron construction ensures longevity and resistance to mechanical stress. The 1-1/2 inch trade size makes it compatible with standard conduit systems of the same dimension. This component is essential for maintaining a safe and compliant electrical installation, ensuring that wiring remains protected throughout its run.
