Viega 79300 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are the two ends on the Viega 79300 ProPress adapter?
The 79300 is a P x FPT adapter: one end is a 1/2 inch ProPress crimp socket for copper tube, the other is 1/2 inch female pipe thread. So it takes you from a pressed copper run into a male-threaded component like a valve nipple, gauge, or appliance connector.
2) Is the Viega 79300 ProPress adapter safe for potable water lines?
It's made of zero lead bronze, which is what Viega uses for potable water service. The bronze body also handles the thread torque better than a plastic transition would when you're screwing into it.
3) Does the 79300 adapter need a special press jaw or can I use my standard 1/2 inch ProPress jaw?
The press end is a standard 1/2 inch ProPress socket, so it presses with the same 1/2 inch jaw set you use for the rest of the ProPress line. No separate tooling for the adapter.
4) What does Smart Connect on this Viega adapter actually do for me on the job?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: the sealing element is shaped so an un-pressed joint leaks deliberately during pressure testing instead of holding. On a wall of fittings, that's how you find the one you skipped before you close the ceiling.
5) Will a 1/2 inch ProPress female adapter fit in a tight joist bay or behind a fixture?
It's a compact fitting, 1.614 inches across, 1.047 inches high and 0.984 inches long, at 0.121 lbs. Tight spaces are more about jaw clearance than the fitting itself, so leave room to get the press ring square on the socket.
