Eaton Specification Sheet - NPL6001000SA
Material and construction: The NPL6001000SA uses aluminum for corrosion resistance and a lighter profile while maintaining rigid/IMC compatibility. This reduces weight on long conduit runs, easing handling and improving worker safety, while delivering dependable mechanical integrity in overhead runs and around machinery enclosures in demanding industrial environments. Size and length: With a 6 in x 10 in size and 10 in overall length, it provides a predictable bridge between conduit sections. This streamlines layout planning, minimizes on-site trimming, and speeds panel or equipment wiring in control rooms and plant floors. Certifications and compliance: NEC/CEC standards ensure safe, code-compliant installations in Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, with UL Canada certifications supporting cross-border procurement. Weight and handling: At about 4.81 lb, it enhances portability for field crews and reduces fatigue on long runs, yielding tangible labor savings. Compatibility and installation: Designed to work with standard Rigid/IMC aluminum conduit and common Crouse-Hinds nuts and washers, enabling rapid, vibration-resistant fits and fewer rework instances. Industry context and value: As a staple in industrial automation, Crouse-Hinds fittings deliver consistent performance, enabling rapid expansions, scalable wiring layouts, and reliable operation in harsh environments.

FAQs
NPL6001000SA is designed for joining rigid/IMC aluminum conduit and works with standard Crouse-Hinds locknuts and washers. It meets NEC/CEC requirements for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and is intended for industrial wiring in panels, machines, and field runs. When used with other NPL components, it helps maintain alignment and reduces field rework.
To install, slide the nipple between conduit sections, thread on compatible locknuts and washers, and tighten per torque guidelines. Use appropriate gaskets if moisture resistance is required and verify that the run length matches the design. The aluminum body keeps weight manageable, making handling easier in confined panel spaces.
No. The product is rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations per area classification under NEC/CEC. For hazardous or classified locations, select fittings with certifications appropriate to those environments. Always confirm project location requirements with the electrical engineer and reference the code scope.
The NPL6001000SA complies with NEC/CEC standards and is UL-listed for Canada, supporting cross-border procurement. It also carries a UPC for traceability. These certifications help ensure code compliance, safety, and reliability across North American installations in industrial wiring and automation projects.
Using the NPL6001000SA reduces installation time due to precise sizing and compatibility with common components, lowering field labor costs. Its aluminum construction offers corrosion resistance and longer service life, reducing maintenance calls in tough industrial environments and supporting scalable wiring strategies for plant modernization and automation upgrades.
