Viega 84455 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size branch does the Viega MegaPress 84455 tee reduce to?
The 84455 MegaPress tee is a 2 inch x 2 inch x 1 inch configuration, so the run stays at 2 inch and the branch drops to 1 inch. Use it where you are picking up a 1 inch branch line off a 2 inch carbon steel main without adding a separate reducer.
2) Are all three ends of the Viega 84455 tee press connections, or is the branch threaded?
All three ends are press. The connection type is listed as P1 x P2 x P3, meaning press on the 2 inch run inlet, the 2 inch run outlet, and the 1 inch branch. There is no threaded or grooved end on this fitting, so you need a press tool with the correct jaw or ring for each size.
3) Can I use a Viega MegaPress carbon steel tee on black iron pipe?
MegaPress fittings are carbon steel and are made for black iron/carbon steel pipe systems. The 84455 is built from carbon steel throughout, so it matches the base material of standard black steel pipe and avoids mixing dissimilar metals in the line. It is not a copper or PEX fitting.
4) How much clearance do I need to install the Viega 84455 2 x 2 x 1 press tee?
The fitting itself measures 7.638 inches long, 4.567 inches wide and 2.913 inches high, and weighs 2.565 lbs. Plan on that footprint plus room to swing the press tool jaw around each of the three ports, which is usually the limiting factor in a tight mechanical room or joist bay rather than the fitting body.
5) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 84455 and why does it matter on a punch list?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: an unpressed fitting leaks visibly during pressure test so the installer can find it before the system is closed up. On a job with dozens of joints, that is how you avoid chasing a missed press behind drywall or insulation.
6) Do I have to order a 2 inch MegaPress tee and a separate bushing to get a 1 inch branch?
No. The 84455 is a factory reducing tee, 2 x 2 x 1, so the 1 inch branch outlet is built in. That removes one joint and one press from the assembly compared with running a full-size 2 inch tee and reducing afterward.
7) Is the Viega 84455 tee made in the USA or imported?
Made in Germany. If you are bidding a job with domestic-origin material requirements, that country of origin is what will be on the submittal for this fitting.
