Viega 26030 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What sizes does the Viega MegaPress 26030 reducer connect?
The MegaPress 26030 is a carbon steel reducer sized 1-1/2 inch by 1-1/4 inch, so it steps a 1-1/2 inch run down to 1-1/4 inch in one fitting rather than stacking adapters.
2) What does the FTG x P connection on the Viega 26030 mean for my pipe layout?
FTG x P means one end is a fitting end (street end) that slips into another press fitting, and the other end is a press end that goes over the pipe. So the 1-1/2 side lands in an existing MegaPress socket and the 1-1/4 side presses onto pipe, which saves you a coupling where a reduction meets another fitting.
3) Do I need a special tool to install the Viega 26030 MegaPress reducer?
Yes, this is a press fitting, not threaded or welded, so it needs a press tool with the correct MegaPress jaw or ring for the 1-1/4 inch press end. The 1-1/2 inch side is a fitting end that inserts into another press fitting, so that joint gets pressed at the mating fitting.
4) Can I use the Viega 26030 MegaPress reducer on black iron pipe?
It is a carbon steel press fitting, which is the material family MegaPress is built for on black steel pipe systems. Being carbon steel rather than copper or bronze, it should be kept out of potable copper systems and matched to the steel piping it is pressed onto.
5) How much room do I need to fit the Viega 26030 reducer in a tight chase?
The fitting measures 4.52 inches long by 2.205 by 2.205 inches and weighs 0.926 lbs. Plan clearance around those 2.205 inch cross dimensions for the press jaw as well, since the tool needs to close square on the press end.
6) Is the Viega 26030 a tee or a straight reducer?
It is a two-end reducer, not a branch fitting. It joins 1-1/2 inch to 1-1/4 inch inline. If you need a branch off the main, you want a press tee with a reducing outlet instead.
7) What is the Viega MegaPress part number and where is it made?
Order it as Viega MegaPress 26030. It is made in Germany.
