Viega 49433 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe sizes does the Viega 49433 PureFlow tee connect?
The Viega 49433 PureFlow press tee is a reducing tee sized 3/4 inch x 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch, with all three ends press (PEX) connections in a P1 x P2 x P3 arrangement. Use it where a 3/4 inch run branches down to a pair of 1/2 inch outlets, such as a trunk line feeding two fixture drops.
2) Do I need a press tool for the Viega 49433 PureFlow tee, or can it be crimped?
This is a press fitting, so it is made up with a PEX press tool and the correct jaw for each size, not with a crimp ring and crimp tool. Because this tee mixes a 3/4 inch end with two 1/2 inch ends, you need jaws for both sizes on hand to complete all three connections.
3) Can I use the 49433 tee where I need a 3/4 inch branch off a 3/4 inch main?
No. On the 49433 only one end is 3/4 inch; the remaining two are 1/2 inch. For a 3/4 inch branch you need a different PureFlow tee configuration, such as 3/4 x 3/4 x 3/4 or 3/4 x 3/4 x 1/2 depending on where the larger port has to land.
4) Is the Viega 49433 tee metal or plastic?
It's a polymer body, not brass. Polymer PureFlow fittings are a common choice where a job spec calls for non-metallic fittings or where dezincification of brass is a concern on aggressive water. The fitting weighs 0.052 lbs.
5) What does Smart Connect technology do on a Viega PureFlow tee?
Smart Connect is Viega's feature that lets an unpressed connection leak visibly during pressure testing, so an installer finds the missed joint before the wall closes up. On a three-outlet fitting like the 49433 that matters more than on a coupling, since there are three separate presses to miss.
6) Which order are the ports on the Viega 49433 3/4 x 1/2 x 1/2 tee?
The ports are designated P1 x P2 x P3, read in the same order as the stated 3/4 inch x 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch sizing: the 3/4 inch port is the first position and the two 1/2 inch ports follow. Lay the run out accordingly so the large port faces the incoming trunk.
7) Is the Viega 49433 PureFlow tee made in the USA for a Buy American spec?
Country of origin on the 49433 PureFlow press tee is listed as Made In USA, which is what institutional and government procurement typically needs documented on domestic-content jobs.
