Abstract
A conduit stub-up eliminator assembly as disclosed herein comprises a pipe fitting comprising a tubular element including a first connector end for securing to an in-slab raceway, in use, and a second connector end having a collar with an opening for selectively receiving an above slab raceway, in use, and wherein the pipe fitting stub is adapted to be mounted in the in-slab raceway so that the collar opening is spaced from the base a distance corresponding to the select thickness so that the collar opening is flush with the surface of the concrete slab. A cap comprises a head atop a threaded neck threadably received in the collar to prevent concrete from entering the pipe fitting, and an elongate projection element extending upward from the head.

A conduit stub-up eliminator assembly for providing a raceway connection flush with a surface of a concrete slab of a select thickness comprising:
- a pipe fitting comprising a tubular element including a first connector end for securing to an in-slab raceway, in use, and a second connector end having a collar with an opening for selectively receiving an above slab raceway, in use, wherein the collar comprises an inner thread for receiving a threaded connector, and wherein the pipe fitting stub is adapted to be mounted in the in-slab raceway so that the collar opening is spaced from the base a distance corresponding to the select thickness so that the collar opening is flush with the surface of the concrete slab;
- and
- a cap comprising a head atop a threaded neck threadably received in the collar to prevent concrete from entering the pipe fitting, and an elongate projection element extending upward from the head.
A conduit stub-up eliminator assembly for providing a raceway connection flush with a surface of a concrete slab of a select thickness comprising:
- an elbow including a first connector end for securing to a horizontal in-slab raceway, in use, and a second connector end having a threaded collar with an opening for selectively receiving a vertical above slab raceway, in use, wherein the collar comprises an inner thread for receiving a threaded connector, and wherein the pipe fitting stub is adapted to be mounted in the in-slab raceway so that the collar opening is spaced from the base a distance corresponding to the select thickness so that the collar opening is flush with the surface of the concrete slab;
- and
- a cap comprising a head atop a threaded neck threadably received in the collar to prevent concrete from entering the pipe fitting, and an elongate projection element extending upward from the head.
