Stainless steel rigid conduit nipple. Manufactured in type 316 stainless steel to meet stringent sanitary requirements and withstand harsh corrosive environments. The conduit is polished to a bright, easily maintainable finish that allows for minimal cleaning, enhances the appearance and improves the surface's resistance to pitting and bacterial corrosion in CIP (clean-in-place) and SIP (sterilize-in-place) systems. Conduit is highly resistant to damage from impact. Easy to cut, form and join, stainless steel conduit avoids the labor-intensive procedures that come with PVC-coated installation. No special tools or complicated maintenance and repair procedures are required. In addition to the ease of installation and maintenance, stainless steel is 100% recyclable. Standard rigid conduit threads allow for trouble-free installations.
