Viega 77347 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I press the Viega 77347 onto standard 1/2 inch type L copper tube?
Yes. The press end of the 77347 is a 1/2 inch copper socket and the fitting is copper, so it presses onto nominal 1/2 inch copper tube. Set the joint with a press tool and the correct 1/2 inch ProPress jaw.
2) Do I need a street elbow or a regular 90 for turning off a fitting?
Use the street elbow when the turn happens directly at another fitting. Because the 77347 has one fitting-end (FTG) that inserts into another socket, it eliminates the short piece of tube a standard P x P elbow would need. If both ends of your turn land on cut tube, a regular press-by-press 90 is the right part instead.
3) What is Smart Connect on a Viega ProPress fitting and why does it matter on an inspection?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: a joint that has been assembled but not pressed will leak during pressure testing, so an accidentally skipped connection shows itself on the test rather than after the walls close up. On a job with a lot of 1/2 inch branch turns, that is the practical reason contractors run ProPress fittings like the 77347.
4) How much clearance does the Viega 77347 1/2 inch press elbow take up in a tight bay?
The 77347 is a compact fitting: 1.807 inches high, 2.008 inches wide, 0.957 inches long, weighing 0.104 lbs. Allow beyond that for the press jaw to close around the socket, which is usually what governs spacing in a stud bay or against a joist, not the fitting body itself.
5) Is the Viega 77347 elbow copper or bronze, and where is it made?
Copper body, made in Germany. A copper press fitting is the normal choice on a copper water line since you are joining like to like and avoiding a dissimilar metal junction mid-run.
