Overview

The ABB NPL11/4X12SS is a 304 stainless steel conduit nipple designed for use with Rigid and Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC) systems. It features a 1-1/4 inch (35 metric) pipe size and a 12-inch nipple length, providing a durable and corrosion-resistant connection point for electrical installations. The 304 stainless steel construction offers superior resistance to rust, chemicals, and high temperatures compared to carbon steel alternatives, making it ideal for outdoor, corrosive, or high-moisture environments. The threaded ends ensure secure, leak-proof joints when paired with compatible conduit fittings, maintaining system integrity under demanding conditions. This conduit nipple is specifically engineered for Rigid and IMC conduit systems and is not compatible with Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT). It meets industry standards for mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term reliability in harsh or regulated environments. Common applications include industrial facilities, chemical processing plants, food and beverage production, wastewater treatment plants, and marine installations. It is also used in pharmaceutical, pulp and paper, and offshore oil and gas environments where stainless steel components are necessary to meet code requirements or withstand extreme conditions. The NPL11/4X12SS is part of ABB’s Installation Products line, which provides high-quality components for electrical infrastructure projects requiring robust, long-lasting solutions.
