Viega 20819 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What kind of connection does the Viega 20819 ProPress adapter have on each end?
The 20819 is a press-by-female-threaded adapter: one end is a 2-1/2 inch ProPress copper socket that gets crimped onto tube, the other is 2-1/2 inch female pipe thread. It's the transition fitting you use when you need to come off a pressed copper run into a male-threaded pipe, valve tailpiece, or threaded equipment connection.
2) Will the Viega 20819 press onto 2-1/2 inch copper tube?
Yes. The press end is sized 2-1/2 inch and the body is copper, so it presses onto 2-1/2 inch copper tube. Both the press socket and the female thread are 2-1/2 inch, so there is no size step through the fitting.
3) Can I use the Viega 20819 to connect copper tube to a threaded steel or brass valve?
That's exactly what it's for. The female pipe thread accepts any standard 2-1/2 inch male NPT, so a threaded valve, nipple, gauge tee, or piece of equipment threads straight in while the other end presses to copper. Thread sealant or tape goes on the male thread as usual; the press end needs nothing but a clean, properly deburred and marked tube.
4) What does Smart Connect mean on the Viega 20819 adapter?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature built into the sealing element. During a pressure test, any fitting left unpressed leaks visibly so it can be found and corrected before the system is closed in. On a 2-1/2 inch line that's worth knowing, since a missed press at that diameter is not a small problem.
5) Is the Viega 20819 adapter copper or bronze, and where is it made?
Copper body, made in Germany. Copper construction keeps it consistent with the copper tube it presses onto, which matters on large-diameter domestic water where mixing dissimilar metals at a joint invites galvanic issues.
