Viega 26026 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What sizes does the Viega MegaPressG 26026 reducer connect?
The Viega 26026 MegaPressG reducer joins 1-1/2 inch to 1-1/4 inch. The ends are FTG x P, meaning one end is a fitting (street) end sized to slip into a 1-1/2 inch press fitting and the other is a press socket that accepts 1-1/4 inch pipe.
2) What pipe material is the Viega 26026 MegaPressG fitting made for?
Carbon steel. The 26026 is a carbon steel MegaPressG fitting, so it is used on black iron / carbon steel pipe, not on copper or stainless lines. MegaPressG fittings carry Viega's Smart Connect feature, which leaves an unpressed connection visibly leaking during testing so it can be found before the system goes into service.
3) What does the FTG end on a MegaPressG reducer mean for my install?
FTG is a fitting end, not a press socket. On the 26026 that 1-1/2 inch end slides into another 1-1/2 inch MegaPressG fitting's socket, so you can drop a size without adding a coupling. The 1-1/4 inch end is a press socket that goes directly over 1-1/4 inch carbon steel pipe. If you need pipe on both sides instead, you want a P x P reducer.
4) Is the Viega 26026 a tee or a straight reducer?
It is a reducer, a two-end size-change fitting going 1-1/2 inch to 1-1/4 inch. If you need a branch takeoff you need a MegaPressG reducing tee instead, which has three ports.
5) Can I use a MegaPressG carbon steel fitting on copper or PEX?
No. The 26026 is a carbon steel press fitting sized for carbon steel pipe. Copper needs a copper press system and PEX needs its own fittings; mixing a carbon steel press socket onto other tube will not seal and invites galvanic problems.
6) What is the part number and UPC for the 1-1/2 x 1-1/4 MegaPressG reducer?
Viega part number 26026, UPC 691514260266. It is made in Germany and weighs 0.926 lbs, which matters when you are counting fittings toward a hanger or support calculation on a large press job.
