Chase Nipple Connector · 2 in Trade Size - Zinc Die-Cast - CHASE2

What this product is for

This chase nipple connector is used to create a short threaded connection through a box, cabinet, or enclosure wall. It is commonly selected to join adjacent enclosures or to terminate rigid metal conduit (RMC) or IMC at a knockout where only a short pass-through is needed.

Use for

• 2 in trade size conduit entries
• Joining boxes, cabinets, gutters, or wireways through aligned knockouts
• Rigid or IMC conduit terminations where a short chase connection is required
• Indoor commercial, industrial, and residential electrical work where permitted by code

Avoid for

• Long conduit runs that require a standard nipple or full conduit section
• Applications where environmental sealing is required unless paired with the correct fittings
• Installations where bonding, bushing, or locknut requirements have not been confirmed

Best for

Best for electricians needing a compact 2 in connection between metal enclosures or a short threaded transition at a knockout. This style is typically chosen when space is tight and a full conduit fitting would be unnecessary.

Installed in

Typically installed in panelboards, junction boxes, pull boxes, wireways, cabinets, and similar metal enclosures in commercial and industrial work, and in residential service or distribution equipment where suitable.

Why this product exists

A chase nipple provides a simple way to protect conductors at a metal opening and make a short mechanical connection between enclosures or conduit and equipment. It helps close the gap where a standard conduit length is not practical.

Compared with similar products

Compared with a close nipple, a chase nipple is typically used as a shorter box-to-box or enclosure pass-through fitting. Compared with a standard connector, it is commonly used where minimal projection and a compact threaded connection are preferred. Actual suitability depends on enclosure spacing, conductor protection needs, and local electrical code.
