Viega 22333 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does FTG x P mean on the Viega 22333 ProPress reducer?
FTG x P describes the two ends. The 1-1/4 inch end is a fitting (FTG) end, meaning it is sized like copper tube so it inserts INTO another 1-1/4 inch press fitting or socket. The 1/2 inch end is a press (P) socket that receives 1/2 inch copper tube. So it is not a female socket on both ends, which matters if you are trying to join two 1-1/4 inch tube stubs, that needs a fitting with two press sockets instead.
2) Do I need a press tool for the Viega 22333, or can it be soldered?
It is a ProPress fitting with Smart Connect technology, so both ends are made up with a press tool and the correct jaw for the size, 1-1/4 inch on the large end and 1/2 inch on the small end. No torch, no flux, no solder. Smart Connect is the feature that lets you spot an unpressed connection during pressure testing.
3) Is the Viega 22333 reducer copper or bronze?
Copper. The 22333 is a copper press reducer, so it goes in copper systems with copper tube on both sides. If your run is in carbon steel or stainless, this is the wrong body material.
4) How much clearance do I need to fit the Viega 22333 reducer and get a jaw on it?
The fitting itself measures 1.378 x 1.378 x 2.697 inches, so body length is modest, but the press jaw needs swing room around each end. Plan your clearance off the jaw, not the fitting, when you are pressing in a joist bay or tight against a wall.
5) What part number do I order for the Viega 1-1/4 inch by 1/2 inch copper press reducer?
Viega model 22333. That is the manufacturer part number for the copper ProPress FTG x P reducer in 1-1/4 inch by 1/2 inch, and it is the number to quote so you do not get a same-size coupling or the reverse-end version.
6) How much does the Viega 22333 reducer weigh for shipping or a bulk fitting order?
0.171 lbs each, so a box of them stays light. Useful if you are building out a stock cart or ordering by the case for an MRO crib.
