Viega 46955 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Viega 46955 PureFlow 90 degree elbow use crimp connections or press connections?
Crimp on both ends. The 46955 is a Crimp1 x Crimp2 fitting, meaning it is installed with PEX crimp rings and a crimp tool, not with a press jaw. If your crew is set up for Viega PureFlow press sleeves, this is the wrong fitting for that method.
2) Do crimp rings come with the Viega 46955 elbow?
No. The 46955 is the brass elbow body only. You order 1 inch crimp rings separately, one per end, and you need a crimp tool sized for 1 inch to make the joint.
3) Is the Viega 46955 brass elbow safe for potable drinking water lines?
It is made of zero lead brass, which is what makes it suitable for potable hot and cold water distribution. The body is brass throughout, and it is made in the USA.
4) How much space do I need to fit a 1 inch crimp elbow inside a stud bay or behind a wall?
The 46955 measures 1.85 x 1.82 x 0.92 inches, so the turn itself is compact enough for a standard stud bay. Plan clearance beyond that for the crimp tool jaws, which need room to close square on both rings.
5) Should I use a brass crimp elbow or just bend the 1 inch PEX around the corner?
For 1 inch PEX a hard 90 is usually easier with a fitting than a bend, because large diameter tubing wants a wide bend radius and a support bracket to hold it. The 46955 brass elbow gives you a tight, fixed 90 that stays put, at the cost of two crimp joints and some flow restriction through the fitting. Where you have the room, a swept bend with a bend support keeps the line fitting free.
6) What is the Viega part number and MPN for the 1 inch PureFlow crimp 90 elbow?
Viega lists it as 46955, and that is both the model and the manufacturer part number. Ask for it by that number when matching an existing PureFlow crimp system on a job.
