Viega 26740 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does FTG x P mean on the Viega MegaPress 26740 reducer?
FTG x P describes the two ends: the FTG (fitting) end slips into another fitting or press socket, and the P end is a press connection that goes over the outside of the pipe. So one side lands inside a mating fitting, the other presses onto the pipe. Knowing which end faces which way matters before you cut, because a reducer installed backwards will not seat.
2) Is the Viega 26740 MegaPress fitting suitable for black iron or carbon steel pipe systems?
The 26740 is a carbon steel press fitting, so it is the right material family for carbon steel and black pipe systems. It is not a copper or stainless fitting, and mixing materials on a press system is a specification decision you should confirm against the job drawings.
3) Do I need to thread or weld the Viega 26740 into a carbon steel line?
No. MegaPress is a cold press connection, so there is no threading, no cutting oil and no hot work on the joint itself. That is the main reason crews choose it for occupied buildings where a welding permit is a problem. You do need the correct press tool and jaw or ring for the size being pressed.
4) What part number should I order for a 4 inch by 1-1/2 inch Viega MegaPress carbon steel reducer?
Order Viega part number 26740. That is the manufacturer number to quote to a distributor for the 4 inch by 1-1/2 inch carbon steel MegaPress reducer with Smart Connect.
5) Where is the Viega 26740 MegaPress fitting made?
It is made in Germany. For public and institutional jobs that carry country-of-origin documentation requirements, that is the value to put on the submittal.
