Appleton CN-38 Bushed Nipple 0.375 in Double Conduit

Product Description

The APPLETON CN-38 is a 3/8-inch double-contact bushed nipple designed for conduit installations in commercial and industrial electrical systems. A bushed nipple provides a short threaded section with an integrated bushing, protecting wire insulation from abrasion at conduit entry points. This fitting is a standard component in rigid and intermediate metal conduit runs where a secure, protected transition is required. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this type of fitting during conduit assembly and panel termination work.

The CN-38 is suited for use in commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and other applications requiring 3/8-inch conduit fittings. It is appropriate for both new construction wiring and retrofit conduit work where a double-contact bushed nipple of this trade size is specified. Its compact form factor allows installation in tight junction box and panel enclosure entries.

Key Features

• 3/8-inch trade size bushed nipple for standard conduit system compatibility
• Double-contact design provides secure electrical continuity at the fitting
• Integrated bushing protects wire and cable insulation from conduit thread edges
• Threaded construction for reliable mechanical connection in rigid conduit runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for 3/8-inch rigid and intermediate metal conduit systems in commercial and industrial electrical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements. De-energize all circuits and lock out power at the panel before working on any conduit termination or enclosure entry. Use appropriate threading tools and conduit wrenches to achieve proper thread engagement without over-torquing the fitting. Inspect the bushing seating after installation to confirm wire insulation is fully protected at the entry point.
