Overview

The ABB NPL6X673/4-G PVC Coated Conduit Nipple is a precision-engineered steel nipple designed for industrial electrical installations requiring corrosion-resistant protection. This 6-inch (155 metric) conduit nipple measures 67.75 inches in length, providing extended reach for complex conduit runs in commercial, industrial, and utility applications. The interior features a nominal 0.002-inch (2 mil) blue urethane coating for smooth wire pulling and enhanced corrosion resistance, while the exterior is protected by a minimum 0.040-inch (40 mil) PVC coating bonded to the hot-dip galvanized rigid steel core. Threads are additionally coated with blue urethane for thread protection during installation and operation. The standard dark gray finish ensures professional appearance and UV resistance. Constructed from hot-dip galvanized steel per ANSI C80.1-1994 standards, this nipple delivers superior mechanical strength and long-term durability in harsh environments. The product is manufactured in the USA and distributed by Gross Automation. Custom colors are available upon request for applications requiring specific identification standards. This conduit nipple is ideal for connecting threaded conduit sections where standard couplings cannot be used, such as tight spaces or offset installations. The Ocal-Blue® coating system provides a complete corrosion-resistant solution for both interior and exterior surfaces, reducing maintenance costs and extending service life in corrosive atmospheres including chemical plants, wastewater treatment facilities, and coastal installations. The product meets stringent industry standards for electrical conduit systems and is backed by ABB's reputation for quality installation products.
