Viega 25740 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Viega MegaPress 25740 fit 1 inch black iron pipe?
The 25740 is a 1 inch MegaPress carbon steel fitting, so it presses onto 1 inch nominal steel pipe, which is what black iron pipe is. The press joint is made with a MegaPress jaw and a press tool, no threading and no welding on the pipe end.
2) Can I use a carbon steel MegaPress fitting on a domestic potable water line?
No. Carbon steel is for non-potable service, gas, hydronic heating, compressed air, fire protection and similar closed systems. The 25740 is a carbon steel MegaPress fitting, so for potable water you want the copper or stainless press line instead, not this one.
3) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 25740 MegaPress fitting and why does it matter on a pressure test?
Smart Connect is the feature Viega builds into the MegaPress sealing element so an unpressed connection leaks during testing instead of passing. On a run of joints that matters more than anything else on the fitting, because the one you missed shows itself at test rather than in a ceiling six months later. The 25740 is the 1 inch carbon steel version.
4) How much room do I need around a 1 inch MegaPress 25740 to get the press jaw in?
The fitting itself is 2.433 inches long and 1.78 inches across in both directions, so plan clearance off those numbers plus the swing of the jaw. In a tight joist bay or against a wall, the jaw arc is the limiting factor rather than the fitting body, which is why press work generally goes faster on open racked pipe than between close-spaced supports.
5) Is the Viega 25740 made in the USA or imported?
Made in Germany. On public and institutional jobs with a domestic sourcing clause that is the line that decides it, so check the spec before you standardize a whole run on it.
