Overview

Constructed from hot-dip galvanized rigid steel, this 3-inch (78mm) nominal pipe size nipple measures 14 inches (355.6mm) in length, providing precise fitment for conduit runs in demanding environments. Interior surfaces feature a nominal 0.002-inch (2 mil) blue urethane coating that resists moisture, chemicals, and abrasion to maintain electrical integrity. The exterior is protected by a minimum 0.040-inch (40 mil) PVC layer, delivering exceptional impact resistance and UV stability for outdoor or corrosive applications. Threads are coated with blue urethane to prevent galling and ensure leak-proof joints during assembly. Ideal for chemical plants, wastewater treatment facilities, marine environments, and food processing plants where corrosion resistance is critical. Compatible with standard rigid steel conduit systems and Ocal-Blue® double-coat split couplings for seamless integration. The dark gray PVC exterior provides visual identification while meeting industry standards for electrical conduit systems. Custom color options are available upon request for specialized applications. Key specifications include: 3-inch nominal pipe size (NPS), 14-inch length, galvanized steel construction, 2-mil blue urethane interior coating, 40-mil PVC exterior coating, and blue urethane-coated threads. Distributed by Gross Automation for rapid procurement and technical support.
