Eaton Crouse-Hinds NPL125600SA conduit nipple - NEC/CEC
Part Number: NPL125600SA
Quick Summary
NPL125600SA conduit nipple provides a robust, lightweight aluminum connection for rigid/IMC conduit in industrial electrical installs. Engineers commonly face long lead times for compatible fittings, corrosion concerns, and regulatory hurdles in harsh facilities. This part is NEC/CEC compliant and UL-listed for rigid-IMC fittings, with Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location classification. Lightweight aluminum reduces handling effort and installation time, while robust threading and corrosion resistance help extend service life. Using NPL125600SA also simplifies stock management due to a standard 1-1/4 in x 6 in size, improving procurement consistency. With its aluminum construction and clear specifications, it is well-suited for OEMs and integrators aiming for compliant, durable, and cost-effective conduit support.

FAQs
Begin by inspecting and cleaning the nipple threads, then thread it onto compatible rigid/IMC conduit, ensuring full engagement. Use appropriate locknuts or bushings, thread by hand to avoid cross-threading, and torque to the recommended spec to prevent loosening. The 6 inch length aligns with standard enclosure hubs, reducing misalignment and rework.
Key specs include size 1-1/4 in, length 6 in, aluminum construction, weight 0.36 lb, UPC 662276484450, and rigid/IMC conduit compatibility. Performance benefits arise from corrosion resistance, lighter handling than steel alternatives, and code-compliant NEC/CEC installation, which translates to faster installs and lower maintenance in industrial environments.
Yes. The nipple is NEC/CEC compliant and UL-listed for rigid-IMC conduit fittings, with an Ordinary/Non-Hazardous location classification. This combination supports safe, code-compliant installations in manufacturing facilities, data centers, and other commercial/institutional settings, helping ensure regulatory alignment and reliable long-term performance.
Absolutely. Its aluminum construction offers a weight advantage (0.36 lb) over heavier metals, simplifying handling and reducing crew fatigue during installation. The 1-1/4 in x 6 in size pairs with common enclosures and hubs, enabling quicker assemblies and fewer adapters without compromising mechanical strength or electrical integrity in non-hazardous locations.
The ROI comes from reduced labor time due to easier handling and quick, secure threading, along with longer service life from corrosion-resistant aluminum. Code compliance limits rework risk, and standardized sizing simplifies procurement and stocking. Over the project lifetime, these factors contribute to predictable costs, fewer maintenance interruptions, and improved project timelines.
