Close conduit nipple - 2 in trade size - galvanized steel - rigid/IMC - 2XCLOSE
SKU: CF-2XCLOSE
2 in close conduit nipple for rigid metal conduit or IMC, typically used where two female threaded entries need a short threaded connection. Galvanized steel construction suits commercial and industrial raceway work where space is limited.
What this product is for
This 2 in close conduit nipple is used to connect two female threaded conduit fittings, boxes, or enclosures with very little added length. It is intended for threaded rigid metal conduit and IMC raceway systems.
Use for
Use for joining threaded hubs, conduit bodies, junction boxes, pull boxes, and enclosures in commercial or industrial installations. It is commonly selected when a standard longer nipple would add too much spacing.
Avoid for
Avoid using this fitting where a specific nipple length is required for spacing, sealing, or locknut and bushing clearance. Do not assume suitability for corrosive locations unless the project specifically accepts galvanized steel.
Best for
Best for rigid or IMC threaded raceway work where a compact connection is needed between enclosures or threaded fittings. Typical trade use includes service equipment, mechanical rooms, and industrial conduit runs.
Installed in
Installed in indoor or outdoor threaded conduit systems, depending on the overall enclosure and raceway design. Commonly found in electrical rooms, commercial buildings, and industrial facilities.
Why this product exists
A close nipple provides a short threaded connection where installers need to keep equipment tight together and maintain a threaded metallic raceway path. This helps reduce unnecessary offset between connected components.
Compared with similar products
Compared with standard-length conduit nipples, a close nipple minimizes added length. Compared with chase nipples, this style is intended for threaded rigid metal conduit or IMC connections rather than simple box terminations. For corrosive environments, stainless steel or PVC-coated alternatives may be more suitable.

Typical conduit fill guidance: Raceway fill is typically limited to 40 percent by code rule of thumb, but actual fill depends on conductor type, insulation, and applicable code requirements.
