Viega 28815 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What sizes does the Viega MegaPressG 28815 reducer connect?
The Viega MegaPressG 28815 is a 2-1/2 inch by 2 inch carbon steel reducer. It carries an FTG x P connection, so the 2-1/2 inch end is a fitting (male) end that slips into another 2-1/2 inch press fitting socket, and the 2 inch end is a press socket that receives 2 inch pipe. Pay attention to that FTG orientation when you lay out the run, because it is not a socket on both ends.
2) Can I use the MegaPressG 28815 on gas lines or only water?
MegaPressG is Viega's gas-rated press line, and the 28815 is part of that family in carbon steel with Smart Connect technology. The Smart Connect feature is what lets an installer identify an unpressed connection during pressure testing before the system goes into service. For potable water you would be looking at a different Viega press system, not a MegaPressG fitting.
3) What does FTG x P mean on a Viega press reducer?
FTG means fitting end: that end is sized like pipe so it slides into another fitting's socket. P means press socket: it receives pipe. On the 28815, 2-1/2 inch is the FTG end and 2 inch is the press end. If you need a socket on both ends instead, you want a socket-by-socket reducing coupling rather than this FTG configuration.
4) Will the MegaPressG 28815 work on stainless or copper pipe?
No. The 28815 is a carbon steel fitting with a carbon steel body, built for steel pipe systems. For copper or stainless you need the press system matched to that pipe material, not a MegaPressG carbon steel fitting.
5) Where is the Viega 28815 MegaPressG fitting manufactured?
Made in Germany. For spec submittals on institutional and government jobs where country of origin has to be declared, that is the entry for the 28815.
