Eaton Crouse-Hinds NPL3001200 conduit nipple - 3x12
Part Number: NPL3001200
Quick Summary
Engineers rely on the Eaton NPL3001200 conduit nipple to provide a rigid connection for steel IMC conduit runs in industrial facilities. In demanding environments, misalignment and corrosion from unfriendly conditions can drive downtime and costly replacements. This nipple is designed to NEC/CEC-compliant assemblies and is suitable for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous locations, with UL documentation supporting conformity across US and Canada. The galvanized steel construction offers robust corrosion resistance in damp or sweaty spaces, while the 3 in x 12 in size fits typical IMC configurations. By standardizing on this component, teams accelerate installation, improve long-term reliability, and reduce lifecycle costs without sacrificing safety.

FAQs
To install the NPL3001200, ensure the conduit ends are clean and properly deburred. Thread the nipple into the mating conduit connectors until fully seated, using the appropriate locknut and washer. Verify alignment before tightening and test for smooth rotation. The galvanized finish helps resist corrosion in ordinary locations, while NEC/CEC compliance ensures you meet code requirements.
Key specs include model NPL3001200, conduit type rigid/IMC, material steel, size 3 in x 12 in, and weight about 6.3 lb. It is suitable for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous locations and complies with NEC/CEC standards. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance, making it appropriate for panel assemblies and equipment rooms in non-hazardous environments.
Yes, the galvanized steel construction offers corrosion resistance suitable for damp or exposed conditions within ordinary non-hazardous locations. While it is not rated for hazardous areas, its finish and materials are designed to withstand typical industrial environments where panels, enclosures, and equipment cabinets are located outdoors or in damp indoor spaces.
The NPL3001200 is designed to NEC/CEC compliant assemblies for ordinary locations. Documentation and UL certifications covering rigid/IMC conduit fittings are available in Eaton literature, which aids regulatory reviews and Canadian/US compliance during procurement and QA checks.
Using the NPL3001200 can reduce downtime through reliable, vibration-resistant connections and fewer field adjustments. The galvanized finish minimizes corrosion-related maintenance, extending service life. Combined with NEC/CEC compliance and readily available documentation, it streamlines procurement, QA reviews, and long-term lifecycle costs for panel assemblies and industrial installations.
