Viega 26125 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does P x FTG mean on the Viega MegaPress 26125 45 degree elbow?
P x FTG means one end is a press socket and the other is a fitting (street) end. The press end slips over 2 inch pipe and gets crimped; the FTG end is sized to slide INTO another 2 inch press fitting's socket. That is what makes the 26125 a street elbow, so you can change direction 45 degrees right at another fitting without adding a short nipple between them.
2) What pipe does the Viega 26125 MegaPress elbow press onto?
It is a 2 inch x 2 inch carbon steel press fitting, so the press end goes on 2 inch black iron / carbon steel schedule pipe. Both the fitting body and the pipe it joins are carbon steel, which keeps the system galvanically consistent on gas, hydronic and compressed air lines.
3) Can I use a carbon steel MegaPress fitting on copper or stainless pipe?
No. The 26125 is a carbon steel fitting built for carbon steel pipe. Running it on copper puts dissimilar metals in contact, and stainless systems call for stainless press fittings. For copper you want a copper press fitting instead.
4) What is Smart Connect technology on this Viega press elbow?
Smart Connect is Viega's feature that leaves an unpressed connection deliberately leaking during pressure test, so an installer can spot any joint that was missed before the system is buttoned up. It is built into the 26125 45 degree street elbow.
5) How much room do I need to fit a 2 inch 45 degree street elbow in a tight chase?
The 26125 measures 6.622 inches long, 4.78 inches wide and 2.894 inches high, and it weighs 2.094 lbs. Allow clearance beyond that for the press jaw to get fully around the socket, since a 2 inch press tool ring needs swing room on all sides of the fitting.
6) Will a 2 inch carbon steel press elbow work for my building's gas or compressed air line?
The 26125 is a carbon steel press fitting for carbon steel pipe, which is the pipe material those systems are normally run in. Which sealing element you need depends on the medium, so match the fitting's seal to the service (gas versus water or air) when you spec it for a given line.
