Viega 84235 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe size does the Viega MegaPress 84235 coupling press onto?
The Viega 84235 MegaPress coupling is a 1-1/2 inch by 1-1/2 inch fitting, so it joins two runs of 1-1/2 inch carbon steel pipe. Both ends are press connections (P1 x P2), no threading or welding involved.
2) Can MegaPress carbon steel fittings be used on copper or PEX?
No. The 84235 is a carbon steel press fitting sized for 1-1/2 inch black steel pipe. Copper and PEX need their own systems, so don't substitute this coupling on a copper riser or a PEX run.
3) How much clearance do I need around a 1-1/2 inch MegaPress coupling to get the press tool jaw on it?
The coupling body measures 4.63 inches long and 2.437 inches in both height and width, so plan your layout around that envelope plus room for the press jaw to wrap the fitting. Tight-to-wall or close-nippled runs are where this gets decided, so check the pocket before you cut the pipe.
4) What does Smart Connect mean on the Viega 84235 coupling?
Smart Connect is the feature built into the MegaPress sealing element that lets an unpressed connection leak visibly during pressure testing. That way an installer finds a missed joint on test instead of after the system is in service, which matters on a 1-1/2 inch main with a lot of joints behind finished walls.
5) Does the Viega 84235 coupling replace a threaded union on existing black iron pipe?
It joins 1-1/2 inch carbon steel pipe by pressing rather than threading, so on a repair you cut the damaged section out and press the coupling onto clean, properly prepped pipe ends. You are not threading into existing threads, so the existing pipe does not need to be rotated or broken free, which is the usual reason crews choose press over a union in an occupied building.
6) Where is the Viega MegaPress 84235 made, and what is the part number I order by?
Order it as Viega part number 84235. It is made in Germany.
7) How heavy is a 1-1/2 inch MegaPress coupling for a materials takeoff?
Each 84235 coupling weighs 1.164 lbs, useful when you are pricing out a hanger and support schedule or estimating freight on a large press-fitting order.
