Viega 26730 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use the Viega 26730 MegaPress reducer on copper or PEX?
No. This reducer is carbon steel and belongs on black iron or carbon steel pipe systems. For copper you need a Viega ProPress copper fitting, and for PEX a PureFlow fitting. Putting a carbon steel MegaPress fitting on copper is the wrong material pairing.
2) Is the Viega 26730 a fitting-end (FTG) or press-end reducer?
It is an FTG x P configuration: one end is a fitting end sized to slip into another fitting or coupling, the other is a press socket. That matters when you are laying out a run, because an FTG end will not accept pipe the way a press socket does.
3) What does Smart Connect technology do on the Viega 26730?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature. If a joint gets left unpressed during pressure testing, the feature lets water or gas escape at that fitting so the installer can find it before the system is put in service. It does not change how the fitting is pressed, just how a missed press shows itself.
4) What is the manufacturer part number for the Viega MegaPress 3 x 2 carbon steel reducer?
Order it as Viega 26730. That is the MPN carried on the fitting, and the carton is marked with UPC 691514267302. It is made in Germany.
5) Do I need a special press tool for a 3 inch MegaPress fitting?
Yes, 3 inch carbon steel press joints require the large-diameter MegaPress jaws and press ring setup, not the compact tool used on smaller sizes. Confirm your tool covers 3 inch before you schedule the tie-in, since the 26730 has a 3 inch end on it.
6) How much does the 3 inch by 2 inch MegaPress reducer weigh, and how much space does it take?
It runs 1.97 lbs, with a length of 5.709 inches and 3.5 inches on both the height and width dimensions. Worth checking against tight joist bays or close-spaced racking before you commit the layout, and worth knowing if you are staging a large fitting count for a job.
