Viega 79240 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are the two ends on the Viega ProPress 79240 adapter, and which way do they connect?
The 79240 is a P x MPT adapter: one end is a 1 inch ProPress socket that gets crimped onto copper tube, the other is a 3/4 inch male pipe thread that screws into a female threaded port. So it takes you from 1 inch press copper down to a 3/4 inch threaded connection in a single fitting.
2) Do I need a press tool and a 1 inch jaw for the Viega 79240 adapter?
Yes on the press side. The 1 inch end is a ProPress socket, so it needs a press tool with the matching 1 inch ProPress jaw. The 3/4 inch male pipe thread end is made up conventionally with thread sealant or tape and wrenches, no tool jaw involved.
3) Can I use the Viega 79240 bronze adapter on a potable water line?
Yes. The 79240 is a Zero Lead bronze ProPress adapter, which is what Viega supplies for potable water service. Bronze is the body material throughout.
4) Does the Viega 79240 press adapter tell you if a joint was missed?
It has Viega's Smart Connect feature, which leaves a deliberate path for water to escape an unpressed joint during pressure testing. You see the leak before the system is in service rather than after the wall is closed. It does not replace pressing the joint, it just makes an unpressed one obvious.
5) What is the Viega part number and country of origin for this 1 inch x 3/4 inch press by male thread bronze adapter?
Order it as Viega part 79240. It is made in Germany.
