Southwire N-150500 Galvanized Conduit Nipple 1.5x5 in

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE N-150500 is a galvanized steel conduit nipple designed to extend a run of threaded rigid or IMC conduit. Measuring 1.5 inches in trade size and 5 inches in length, it provides a short, threaded coupling point between conduit sections, junction boxes, or fittings. Fabricated from galvanized steel, this nipple delivers strong corrosion resistance and low conductivity, making it a reliable component in conduit systems where secure, lasting connections are required. Licensed electricians and conduit installers use this fitting in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This nipple is suited for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical installations where rigid metal conduit or IMC is the specified raceway. It is typically installed at panel knockouts, junction boxes, enclosures, and anywhere a short threaded section is needed to complete a conduit run. The 1.5-inch trade size fits standard fittings and locknuts of the same size.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for high corrosion resistance and durability
• 1.5-inch trade size compatible with standard rigid and IMC conduit fittings
• 5-inch length provides a short extension point between conduit sections or boxes
• Threaded ends ensure secure, stable connections in metallic conduit systems
• UL listed for use in code-compliant electrical installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 1.5-inch threaded rigid metal conduit and IMC conduit systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize the circuit and verify power is off before working on any conduit system. Use appropriate conduit wrenches and thread-sealing compound where required by the installation specification. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can damage conduit threads or fittings.
