Overview

The ABB NPL1X6-B is a 1-inch (27 Metric) pipe size conduit nipple, with a specified nipple length of 6 inches (152.4 millimeters). This conduit nipple is engineered for robust industrial electrical installations, providing a reliable connection point within conduit systems. The core construction of the NPL1X6-B utilizes hot-dip galvanized rigid steel, a material chosen for its inherent strength and superior corrosion resistance, ensuring longevity in demanding environments. A key feature of this conduit nipple is its multi-layered coating system. On the interior, it boasts a nominal 0.002-inch (2 mil) blue urethane coating. This interior coating is specifically designed to facilitate smooth wire pulling and offers protection to the conduit's inner surface. The exterior of the NPL1X6-B is protected by a substantial minimum 0.040-inch (40 mil) PVC coating. This thick exterior coating provides significant defense against a wide range of environmental damage, including abrasion and chemical exposure. Further enhancing the protective qualities and ease of assembly, the threads of the NPL1X6-B are also coated. A blue urethane coating is applied over the threads, ensuring complete coverage and facilitating ease of connection during installation. This specific model, the NPL1X6-B, is readily identifiable by its distinctive blue urethane and PVC coatings, which not only offer clear visual identification but also contribute to its enhanced protection. This conduit nipple is an integral part of the Ocal-Blue® system, a comprehensive solution engineered for use in demanding environments where durability and reliability are paramount. While custom colors are available upon request, the standard offering for this nipple is blue. It is designed for seamless integration and use with Ocal® PVC-coated conduit systems. For detailed installation tooling and procedures, users are directed to consult pages 94-108 of the manufacturer's catalog. This product is manufactured in the US.
