Viega 84185 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What sizes does the Viega MegaPress 84185 reducing tee connect?
The MegaPress 84185 is a 1-1/2 inch x 3/4 inch reducing fitting in carbon steel. The connection arrangement is FTG x P, meaning one end is a fitting end sized to slip into a press connection and the other is a press end that accepts pipe. Overall length is 4.134 inches, with height and width both 1.902 inches.
2) Can I use the Viega 84185 MegaPress fitting on copper or PEX?
No. The 84185 is carbon steel and is made for black iron / carbon steel pipe systems. Copper tube takes a copper press fitting (Viega ProPress), and PEX needs a PEX press fitting. Putting a carbon steel MegaPress fitting on copper mismatches both the sealing element and the metal.
3) Do I need to thread or weld the 84185, or is it a press fitting?
It presses. No threading, no welding, no open flame on the job. You cut the steel pipe, deburr, mark depth, slip the press end over the pipe and press with the matching jaw. The FTG end goes into another press fitting rather than over pipe, so plan the joint order before you press anything.
4) What does Smart Connect mean on a Viega MegaPress fitting?
Smart Connect is Viega's feature that leaves an unpressed connection deliberately leaky during pressure testing, so an installer finds the joint they missed before the system is enclosed. On a run with a reducing tee like the 84185 that matters, since a branch takeoff is an easy joint to skip in a crowded ceiling.
5) What is the Viega part number and UPC for this 1-1/2 x 3/4 MegaPress reducer?
Viega part number 84185, UPC 691514841854. Order by the 84185 number, since MegaPress carries a separate number for every size and connection combination and the adjacent reducers look nearly identical in a bin.
