Viega 26585 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What sizes does the Viega MegaPress 26585 tee connect?
The Viega MegaPress 26585 is a reducing tee sized 3" x 3" x 2" - the run is 3 inch on both ends and the branch outlet is 2 inch. All three outlets are press connections (P1 x P2 x P3), so no threading or welding is involved on any port.
2) Can I use the MegaPress 26585 carbon steel tee on black iron pipe?
Carbon steel is the body material, which is what MegaPress fittings are built for: joining black iron and carbon steel pipe without cutting threads or hot work. It presses onto the pipe, so the existing pipe does not need to be re-threaded at the branch.
3) What is Smart Connect technology on this Viega tee?
Smart Connect is the feature on the 26585 MegaPress tee that lets the installer identify an unpressed connection. Unpressed joints leak visibly during pressure testing, so you can find and press any fitting that was missed before the system goes into service.
4) How much room do I need to fit the 3 x 3 x 2 MegaPress tee between hangers?
Plan for a fitting that measures 8.819 inches in length, 6.862 inches in width and 5.193 inches in height. On top of that you need clearance around the three press ports for the jaw or ring of the press tool, so a tight joist bay or a pipe run close to a wall may need the hanger spacing opened up.
5) Do I need to order a separate press ring for the 3 inch MegaPress tee?
The 26585 tee ships as the fitting only. Press tooling is bought separately, and because the run ports are 3 inch and the branch is 2 inch you need the correct jaw or ring size for each diameter you are pressing.
6) How heavy is the Viega 26585 MegaPress tee, and will it need extra support?
It weighs 4.06 lbs on its own. At 3 inch carbon steel with a 2 inch branch, the fitting plus water-filled pipe is enough mass that you want hangers on both sides of the tee rather than cantilevering the branch off it.
7) Where is the Viega 26585 MegaPress tee made?
Made in Germany. For public and institutional work that asks for country of origin documentation on mechanical fittings, that is the declared origin for this tee.
8) What is the manufacturer part number for the Viega 3 x 3 x 2 MegaPress tee?
Viega part number 26585. That is the number to quote for the carbon steel MegaPress reducing tee, 3 inch run with a 2 inch branch.
