Viega 26535 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size pipe does the Viega MegaPress 26535 45-degree elbow fit?
The 26535 is a 3 inch by 3 inch elbow, so both ends take 3 inch pipe. It is a press fitting with a press end on each side (P1 x P2), meaning both connections are made with a press tool rather than threading or welding.
2) Can I use a MegaPress carbon steel elbow on black iron gas or hydronic pipe?
The 26535 elbow is made of carbon steel, which is the material MegaPress fittings use for black iron and carbon steel pipe systems. It is not a copper or stainless fitting, so do not press it onto copper tube or use it where a corrosion-resistant stainless fitting is specified.
3) How much room do I need to fit a 3 inch MegaPress 45-degree elbow in a tight chase?
Plan around a body measuring 9.22 x 6.756 x 4.181 inches, and remember you also need clearance for the press tool jaw or ring to wrap the fitting at each end. In a tight chase, dry-fit the jaw before committing the run.
4) What does Smart Connect on the Viega 26535 elbow actually do for me on site?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: if a joint gets missed during pressing, it leaks at test pressure so you find it before the walls close up. On a 3 inch line with a lot of joints, that is what keeps a missed press from becoming a callback.
5) What part number do I order for the Viega 3 inch MegaPress 45-degree elbow?
Order Viega part 26535. That number covers the 3 x 3 inch carbon steel 45-degree press elbow with press ends both sides.
6) Why choose a 45-degree elbow instead of a 90 for a 3 inch steel run?
A 45 lets you offset around an obstruction or swing a run at a shallow angle with less flow restriction than a pair of 90s. Two of these 26535 elbows make a standard offset in a 3 inch carbon steel line. Use a 90 only where you need a hard direction change.
7) Where is the Viega 26535 elbow manufactured?
It is made in Germany. That is the submittal answer for jobs that ask for country of origin on the fitting schedule.
