Thomas Betts 844 Conduit Nipple 1 in Malleable Iron Imc

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS 844 is a malleable iron conduit nipple designed for use with rigid metal conduit and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) systems. It features a threaded connection type and is sized at 1 inch trade size, making it a standard fitting for pulling wire through conduit runs in commercial and industrial electrical installations. This non-insulated nipple is rated for non-hazardous area applications and is installed by licensed electricians as part of a complete conduit assembly.

This conduit nipple is used in rigid and IMC conduit installations across commercial, industrial, and residential settings. It is typically installed at junction boxes, panels, enclosures, and conduit bodies where a short threaded section is needed to connect conduit to a fitting or knockout. Its malleable iron construction provides reliable durability in standard dry or damp location wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit and disconnect power at the panel before beginning any conduit work. Use appropriate pipe wrenches or conduit tools to make threaded connections hand-tight plus a full turn to ensure a secure, continuous ground path. Do not overtighten malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive torque.
