Viega 79445 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does FTG x FPT mean on the Viega 79445 ProPress adapter?
FTG x FPT describes the two ends of the Viega 79445 adapter. The FTG end is a fitting end, sized to slip into the socket of another 3/4 inch press fitting or copper cup rather than accepting tube itself, and the FPT end is a 3/4 inch female pipe thread for a threaded male connection such as a valve tailpiece, nipple, or gauge. Both ends are 3/4 inch, so it takes you from a press system straight into 3/4 inch NPT threads.
2) Will the Viega 79445 let me tie a threaded gauge or valve into an existing 3/4 inch ProPress line?
That's exactly the use. Insert the FTG end into the open 3/4 inch socket of the press fitting or valve on the line, press it, and you have a 3/4 inch female NPT port for a gauge, nipple, backflow tailpiece, or threaded ball valve. No soldering, and no need to cut back and rebuild the run in copper.
3) Is the Viega 79445 adapter safe for potable water lines?
It's made of zero lead bronze, which is what Viega uses for potable water fittings on the ProPress bronze line. That makes it suitable for domestic hot and cold water as well as hydronic and mechanical service. The casting is bronze rather than copper, so it also stands up better where a threaded joint gets wrenched on repeatedly.
4) How much space does the Viega 79445 3/4 inch press-to-thread adapter take up?
Compact enough for tight mechanical room work: 1.201 inches long, 1.831 inches wide across the body, and 1.26 inches high, at 0.148 lbs. Remember the press tool jaw still needs clearance around the FTG joint once the fitting is seated, so plan for jaw swing rather than just the fitting footprint.
