Rigid Nipples

[Fordean]

Go to Ridgid and tell them you want a die to thread 1/2” electrical conduit threads, not plumbing threads and see the response!

I am I have a request Just curious

That only means that the threads were cut deeper.

I agree. Any listed RMC electrical nipple will have tapered threads unless you buy a piece of running thread.

Aren't the nipples or conduits threads only tapered for the 3/4" that's in the cutting teeth? After that, it's "straight thread" anyway, amirite?

All I know is when we thread a piece of robroy or rigid on the 535, the mechanics use that same die when they run stainless or carbon for air or water or whatever... so it would appear to be the same.

I always liked rigid nipples (sorry moderator, just had to say it)

My mind didn't go there, either.
