B-LINE 44-4XSFN6 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the B-Line 44-4XSFN6 nipple section connect two 4 x 4 inch wireway runs?
Yes. The Eaton B-Line 44-4XSFN6 is a 4 inch by 4 inch nipple section, so it mates to 4 x 4 wireway trough on both ends. It is a feed-through section, meaning wire passes straight through from one run to the next with no branch or tee. Overall length is 5.938 inches, which is the gap it will bridge between two enclosures or trough sections.
2) Is this stainless wireway nipple rated for washdown or outdoor use?
The 44-4XSFN6 nipple section carries a NEMA 4X rating and is UL Listed. NEMA 4X covers hosedown, splashing water, and corrosion, which is why this one is built in stainless steel with a brushed finish. That makes it suitable for food plants, car washes, water treatment, and coastal exterior runs where a painted carbon steel wireway would rust out.
3) What is the difference between a feed-through nipple section and an elbow or tee wireway fitting?
A feed-through nipple like the 44-4XSFN6 is a straight, short section used to join two pieces of wireway or to pass conductors between a wireway and an adjacent enclosure in a straight line. It does not change direction and it does not split the run. If you need to turn a corner or branch conductors off to a second run, you want an elbow or a tee fitting in the same 4 x 4 size and NEMA 4X stainless construction instead.
4) Can I mix this stainless nipple with painted steel wireway sections?
Mechanically you can join 4 x 4 sections, but doing it defeats the point. The 44-4XSFN6 is stainless with a NEMA 4X rating precisely for wet or corrosive areas; splicing it into painted carbon steel trough leaves the weak link in the run where corrosion will start. For a 4X installation, keep the whole run, including covers and fittings, in stainless.
5) How do I confirm I am ordering the right B-Line nipple for a 4 inch wireway system?
Order by the model number 44-4XSFN6. The leading 44 is the 4 inch by 4 inch cross section, 4X is the NEMA rating, S is stainless, and it is the feed-through nipple. If your trough is 6 x 6 or 8 x 8, this one will not line up with the bolt pattern or the opening.
6) Does a 4X stainless wireway nipple need any special handling for weight on a job?
Not really. The stainless 4 x 4 nipple section weighs 2.946 lb, so it is a one-hand piece on the ladder. The weight matters more when you are figuring total load on strut or trapeze supports for a long wireway run made up of many sections and fittings.
