About 15602AL Mounting Nipple
What is 15602AL Mounting Nipple?
The 15602AL is a small but essential piece of lighting installation hardware sold by Starlight Lighting for $15.00. It is an anodized aluminum flange mounting nipple measuring 1 inch in length with 1/2 NPSM threading, designed to connect a light fixture directly to a compatible flange or bracket. In short, it is the threaded bridge that ties your fixture body to its mounting point on a ceiling, wall, or pole.
Key features
- Anodized aluminum build — the anodizing layer adds corrosion resistance and a clean finish, so the part holds up in both indoor and exposed installations.
- 1 inch length — a compact profile that keeps the fixture tight to the mounting surface without unnecessary standoff.
- 1/2 NPSM threading — uses a standard straight pipe thread sized for lighting hardware rather than plumbing pressure fittings.
- Works with 15601 flange — engineered as a direct mate for Starlight Lighting's 15601 flange component.
- Works with 15607 bracket — also pairs with the 15607 bracket for bracket-mounted fixtures.
- Lightweight — aluminum keeps the overall fixture assembly weight down compared to brass or steel nipples.
- In stock at Starlight Lighting — currently available at the $15.00 catalog price.
Who is 15602AL Mounting Nipple for?
This part is aimed at lighting professionals, electricians, and serious DIY installers who are already building or servicing a fixture that calls for a flange-mount setup. It is most useful for anyone working within the Starlight Lighting ecosystem, since it is sized to drop straight onto the 15601 flange or 15607 bracket. If you are putting together a custom pendant, sconce, or surface-mounted fixture and need a clean, code-friendly threaded connection, this is the kind of small component you do not want to substitute with a generic plumbing nipple.
How does 15602AL Mounting Nipple compare?
Compared with generic hardware-store pipe nipples, the 15602AL is purpose-built for lighting: it uses the NPSM straight thread standard that fixture hardware expects, and the anodized aluminum keeps it lighter and more corrosion-resistant than raw steel. Against longer or unfinished brass nipples, this one trades extension length for a flush, finished look that pairs with matching Starlight flanges and brackets. If your install simply needs an all-thread spacer with no brand-specific mating surface, a generic nipple may suffice, but for fitted Starlight assemblies the matched part is the safer specification.
Best use cases
- →Mounting lights to 15601 flange brackets
- →Outdoor fixture installation in parking areas
- →Industrial lighting upgrades
- →Replacement for worn mounting hardware
- →Secure ceiling or wall light attachment
Is Mounting Nipple right for you?
The 15602AL Mounting Nipple is best for professionals or experienced DIYers installing or repairing commercial lighting. It requires basic knowledge of NPSM threading and fixture mounting. If you're using Starlight Lighting's 15601 or 15607 series hardware, this OEM part ensures compatibility. Alternatives include universal mounting adapters, but they may lack the same durability or precise fit.
How it compares: Compared to standard steel or plastic mounting nipples, the 15602AL offers better corrosion resistance and a precise OEM fit. It outperforms generic adapters in longevity and stability, especially in outdoor or high-moisture environments.
