The conduit assembly may include a conduit for securing to the fitting component such that the first through-hole is open to the conduit. The bolt, the spacer, the fitting component, and the housing may be arranged with one another to define a captive clearance fit such that a first clearance space is defined between a first surface of the second through-hole and the first portion of the bolt.
