Bridgeport Fittings 1102-DC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes do Bridgeport zinc die cast conduit nipples come in?
Bridgeport's DC conduit nipples run from 1/2 inch through 4 inch trade size: 1/2 (1102-DC), 3/4 (1103-DC), 1 (1104-DC), 1-1/4 (1105-DC), 1-1/2 (1106-DC), 2 (1107-DC), 2-1/2 (1108-DC), 3 (1109-DC), 3-1/2 (1110-DC) and 4 inch (1111-DC). Order by the trade size of the conduit or the enclosure hub you are connecting to.
2) Do I need locknuts with a conduit nipple, or are they included?
You supply the locknuts. The nipple is threaded male on both ends and only becomes a short raceway between two enclosures once a locknut is drawn up on each side of the box wall. Plan on two locknuts per nipple, in the matching trade size, and add sealing rings or bushings if the installation calls for them.
3) What thread type is on Bridgeport DC conduit nipples, and will they thread into a rigid conduit coupling?
The threads are NPSM, the straight machine thread used on rigid and IMC conduit fittings, so they engage standard conduit couplings, locknuts and threaded enclosure hubs of the same trade size. Bridgeport notes the male and female engagement makes a pressure-tight, vibration-resistant joint. Because NPSM is straight rather than tapered, do not treat the joint as liquid-tight on its own.
4) Are these conduit nipples UL Listed for commercial electrical inspection?
Yes. The zinc die cast nipples are UL Listed under file E9391 and carry a NEMA FB-1 rating, the standard covering fittings for conduit and cable assemblies. That is the pairing an inspector or spec writer looks for on enclosure-to-enclosure raceway fittings.
5) Will zinc die cast conduit nipples hold up in a damp mechanical room or outdoors?
Zinc die cast is naturally corrosion resistant, and the ball burnished, mirror smooth finish leaves no rough surface for corrosion to start in, so these hold up in damp indoor and general exterior use. They are not a wet-location seal by themselves, though, the enclosure and the locknut/sealing ring combination determine that. For a steel-conduit run needing a heavier fitting, a malleable iron or steel nipple is the alternative.
6) What is the difference between a conduit nipple and a chase nipple?
A conduit nipple like the Bridgeport DC is threaded on both ends and spans between two enclosures, with a locknut on each side, so it acts as a short raceway carrying conductors from box to box. A chase nipple has one male thread and a shoulder and is used to terminate into a single enclosure wall, not to join two. If your two boxes are back to back or separated by a knockout gap, the conduit nipple is the part you want.
7) Can I use a conduit nipple to join two panels mounted side by side in an electrical room?
That is the intended use. With a locknut on each side of the sheet metal, the nipple ties panel to panel or panel to junction box and gives conductors a short listed raceway between them. Match the nipple trade size to the knockout, and remember conduit nipples under 24 inches of length are subject to the reduced derating allowance in the NEC for short raceways, so check your fill calculation.
8) Are Bridgeport conduit nipples made in the USA for projects with domestic sourcing requirements?
Yes, country of origin on the DC series zinc die cast nipples is the United States. That matters on government, institutional and utility jobs where domestic-content language sits in the spec.
