Southwire N-4001200 Conduit Nipple 4 X 12 Inches

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE N-4001200 is a galvanized steel rigid conduit nipple sized at 4 inches trade size and 12 inches in length. It is used to extend or connect sections of threaded rigid metal conduit or IMC conduit in electrical raceway systems. The galvanized steel construction delivers high corrosion resistance and low conductivity, making it suitable for demanding commercial and industrial environments. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this nipple as a standard component in conduit runs where a short, fixed-length threaded section is required.

This conduit nipple is designed for use in rigid metal conduit and IMC installations across commercial, industrial, and heavy-duty residential electrical systems. It is a practical solution wherever a pre-threaded nipple is needed to bridge two conduit fittings, enclosures, or junction points. The 4-inch trade size suits large-capacity conduit runs common in service entrance, feeder, and branch circuit applications.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides high corrosion resistance for indoor and outdoor raceway use
• Low conductivity material suitable for electrical conduit system requirements
• Pre-threaded on both ends for direct connection to rigid or IMC conduit fittings
• UL listed for compliance with standard electrical installation codes
• 4-inch trade size at 12 inches in length covers common short-run nipple applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard trade component for use with 4-inch trade size threaded rigid metal conduit and IMC conduit systems.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits and lock out the panel before working on any conduit system. Use appropriate thread compound or tape rated for metal conduit on threaded connections to ensure a secure, code-compliant joint. Inspect threads for damage before installation to maintain conduit system integrity.
