Viega 20868 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are the three outlets on the Viega 20868 ProPress tee?
The Viega 20868 is a 4 inch x 4 inch x 2 inch copper tee with a P1 x P2 x FPT connection pattern. The two 4 inch runs are press ends, and the 2 inch branch is female pipe thread, so you press the run into 4 inch copper tube and thread the branch.
2) Can I thread a 2 inch nipple or valve straight into the branch of the Viega 20868 tee?
Yes. The branch is a 2 inch female pipe thread, so a 2 inch male NPT nipple, valve or sensor well threads directly in. No press tool or adapter needed on that leg, only on the two 4 inch press runs.
3) What does Smart Connect do on this Viega press tee?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: the sealing element is shaped so an unpressed joint leaks visibly during pressure test instead of holding, which is how you find a missed press before the ceiling closes. It does not replace pressing, it just makes the miss obvious.
4) What part number should I put on the PO for the 4 x 4 x 2 Viega ProPress tee?
Order Viega 20868. That single manufacturer part number covers the 4 inch x 4 inch x 2 inch copper press by press by FPT tee, so there is no size or finish option to specify.
5) Is this a copper fitting or bronze, and where is it made?
Copper body, manufactured in Germany. Copper press fittings of this type are used on copper tube systems, so the run material matches the fitting and you avoid mixing dissimilar metals at the joint.
