Southwire N-125500 Conduit Nipple 1.25 X 5 Inches Galvanized

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE N-125500 is a galvanized steel conduit nipple sized at 1.25 inches trade size and 5 inches in length. Conduit nipples are short threaded sections used to extend or connect runs of rigid metal conduit or IMC between enclosures, junction boxes, and fittings. This nipple is fabricated from galvanized steel, providing corrosion resistance and durability in both indoor and outdoor installations. It is a standard component stocked by electricians and electrical contractors for panel work, conduit runs, and enclosure connections on commercial and residential projects. UL listed for code-compliant installations.

This conduit nipple is suited for use in rigid metal conduit and IMC systems across residential, commercial, and light industrial applications. It is installed wherever a short threaded section is needed to bridge two threaded fittings, locknuts, or enclosure knockouts. Common install locations include service panels, junction boxes, meter bases, and conduit body connections. Electricians use this nipple when a standard conduit section would be too long or when a close-nipple configuration is required between adjacent enclosures.

Key Features

• 1.25-inch trade size fits standard 1-1/4 inch conduit fittings and knockouts
• 5-inch length suits close-clearance connections between enclosures and fittings
• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and damp locations
• Threaded both ends for direct connection to rigid metal conduit or IMC fittings
• UL listed for use in code-compliant electrical installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard trade component for use with 1-1/4 inch rigid metal conduit and IMC systems requiring a threaded nipple connection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians in accordance with NEC requirements for conduit wiring methods. De-energize all circuits before working in any enclosure where this nipple will be installed. Use appropriate conduit wrenches and thread sealant or anti-oxidant compound as required by local code. Ensure threads are fully engaged on both ends and that all locknuts or bushings are properly seated before energizing the system.
