Description
The Wiremold OFR Series Overfloor Raceway 45 Degree Flat Elbow is engineered to deliver clean, reliable cable routing with precision where you need it most—at a diagonal 45° turn on the same surface. Designed for offices, education spaces, conference rooms, and home theater setups, this flat elbow helps you maximize usable floor space while keeping power, data, and AV cables neatly organized and protected. With a focus on efficiency, safety, and aesthetic appeal, the OFR 45° Flat Elbow integrates seamlessly with the broader OFR system to create adaptable pathways that stay out of the way of furniture, foot traffic, and equipment. It’s a practical solution for modern interiors that demand both form and function in cable management.
- Effortless diagonal routing: The 45-degree flat elbow enables precise, single-surface turns, eliminating the need for complex rerouting and reducing the footprint required for cable runs. This helps you navigate around obstacles, furniture legs, and floor fixtures while keeping cables aligned and protected within the raceway.
- Low-profile, floor-friendly design: With a slim, flat profile, this elbow maintains a discreet presence on the floor and minimizes tripping hazards. Its streamlined shape blends with most floor finishes, contributing to a tidy, professional look in any space.
- Durable, reliable construction: Built to withstand high-traffic environments and daily wear, the OFR 45 Degree Flat Elbow provides robust cable protection and long-lasting performance. Its materials and finish are chosen to resist scuffs, moisture exposure, and everyday stress from chairs, feet, and cleaning equipment.
- Modular compatibility within the OFR family: The elbow is part of the trusted OFR Series, designed to work with other overfloor raceway components for scalable, customizable cable management solutions. This modularity supports future rewiring or reconfiguration as spaces evolve.
- Enhanced safety and organization: By enclosing cables in a dedicated pathway, the elbow reduces trip hazards, limits cable damage, and simplifies maintenance. This contributes to a safer work environment and a neater aesthetic for rooms that demand professional presentation.

How to install Wiremold OFR Series Overfloor Raceway 45 Degree Flat Elbow
- Plan the routing path: Before installation, map out the floor path for your cables, taking into account doorways, furniture, and traffic flow. Identify the exact location where the 45-degree elbow will be placed to achieve a smooth diagonal transition. This planning reduces the need to reposition the elbow later and ensures a clean final look.
- Prepare the surface: Clean the installation area thoroughly to promote proper adhesion or secure fastening. Remove dust, dirt, and debris to ensure the raceway bedding sits flat against the floor and the elbow anchors securely where required.
- Measure and cut as needed: If the OFR components require resizing to fit your space, measure carefully and cut only with the tools recommended by the manufacturer. Ensure that cut edges are smooth to prevent cable snagging or fraying during assembly.
- Position the elbow: Place the 45-degree flat elbow at the planned junction, aligning it with the adjacent raceway sections for a seamless flow. Verify that the curve aligns with the intended diagonal direction and that the overall path remains unobstructed by furniture or fixtures.
- Secure the elbow: Depending on your floor type and the OFR system’s installation method, secure the elbow with the appropriate mounting hardware or adhesive recommended by Wiremold. Ensure fasteners are flush and do not protrude into the walking area to preserve safety and aesthetics.
- Route and organize cables: Thread power, data, and AV cables through the inner channel of the raceway, using separators or dividers if available to keep different cable types organized and to reduce interference. Avoid bending cables beyond recommended radii to maintain performance and longevity.
- Test fit and finish: After installation, check that all sections align properly and that there are no gaps between pieces. Confirm that the elbow’s surface is level with the surrounding raceway and that the pathway remains unobstructed for daily use.
- Final inspection and safety check: Ensure there are no sharp edges exposed and that the overall installation meets local safety codes. Verify that cables move freely through the channel without being pinched or kinked by the elbow or adjacent components.
