Viega 26820 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Viega MegaPress 26820 branch connector actually connect, 4 inch pipe to a 3/4 inch branch?
Right. The 26820 is a press-in branch connector sized 4 inch x 3/4 inch, with a P x FPT connection: the press side goes onto the 4 inch carbon steel main, and the branch outlet is 3/4 inch female pipe thread for a threaded nipple, valve, or drop.
2) Can I use a press-in branch connector instead of cutting and welding a tee into a 4 inch steel main?
That is exactly what the 26820 is for. Rather than cutting the 4 inch line out and welding or threading a full tee, the branch connector presses onto the main and gives you a 3/4 inch FPT outlet. No flame, no welding rig, and you only interrupt the main where the branch goes. You do need the Viega MegaPress press tool with the correct jaw, and the main has to be carbon steel of the right size for the fitting.
3) Is the Viega 26820 branch connector for copper or for black steel pipe?
Black/carbon steel. The 26820 is a carbon steel MegaPress fitting, so it belongs on carbon steel pipe systems, not on copper tube. For copper you would be in a different press family entirely.
4) How much room do I need around the 4 inch main to fit the Viega 26820 branch connector?
The connector body is compact: 1.693 inches long, 1.693 inches wide, and 1.654 inches high. Plan clearance for the press jaw as well, which needs more space than the fitting footprint alone, so check the gap between the main and any adjacent pipe, joist, or wall before you commit the location.
5) Which Viega part number do I order for a 4 inch by 3/4 inch MegaPress branch connector?
Viega 26820. It is the carbon steel MegaPress press-in branch connector in 4 inch x 3/4 inch with a P x FPT configuration.
6) Where is the Viega MegaPress 26820 made, and what does a single fitting weigh for a materials list?
Made in Germany, and each 26820 branch connector weighs 0.445 lbs. Useful if you are pricing freight on a bulk takeoff of branch drops.
