Viega 26056 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Viega MegaPressG 26056 elbow for gas or for water lines?
MegaPressG is Viega's gas-rated press line for black iron (carbon steel) pipe, which is what the 26056 is built from. The G suffix and the HNBR-style sealing element are what separate it from standard MegaPress used on non-gas carbon steel lines. If you are pressing a water line in carbon steel, you want standard MegaPress instead.
2) Can I press this Viega elbow onto galvanized or copper pipe?
No. The 26056 is a carbon steel press fitting sized for 3/4 inch black iron pipe. Copper needs a copper press system (ProPress), and the fitting is not a substitute for a copper or PEX elbow. Matching fitting material to pipe material is not optional on a press joint.
3) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 26056 and why does a contractor care?
Smart Connect is a deliberate leak path designed into the sealing element so an unpressed joint weeps during pressure test instead of looking finished. On a gas line that is the difference between finding a missed crimp at test and finding it after the wall is closed. It does not replace pressing the joint, it only makes a missed one visible.
4) How much room do I need to fit the Viega 26056 street elbow in a tight chase?
The fitting measures 3.543 x 3.11 x 1.496 inches and weighs 0.531 lbs. Allow clearance beyond that for the press jaw to close fully around the socket, since the jaw needs more swing room than the fitting body occupies.
5) Is the Viega 26056 made in the USA for a Buy American spec job?
Country of origin on the 26056 MegaPressG elbow is listed as Made in USA, which is what a public-works or institutional submittal package normally asks for on domestic-content lines.
