Viega 84555 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are the three connections on the Viega 84555 MegaPress tee?
The 84555 is a reducing tee with two 1 inch press ends on the run and a 1/2 inch female pipe thread on the branch, listed as P1 x P2 x FPT. So the run presses onto 1 inch carbon steel pipe and the branch takes a male-threaded fitting, gauge, or drop instead of a press connection.
2) Does the Viega 84555 have Smart Connect, and what does that actually do on the job?
Yes, the 84555 carries Viega's Smart Connect feature. It leaves an unpressed connection deliberately leaky during pressure testing so an installer can spot a joint that was missed before the system is put in service. It is a verification aid, not a seal, so every joint still has to be pressed.
3) How much room do I need to fit this 1 inch MegaPress tee in a tight joist bay?
The fitting measures 5.15 inches long, 2.618 inches wide and 1.78 inches high, and it weighs 0.901 lbs. Plan the run length around 5.15 inches plus your tool clearance, since the press jaw needs space to close around each end.
4) What part number do I order for the 1 x 1 x 1/2 MegaPress FPT tee?
Viega part number 84555. It is a single-configuration item: carbon steel, 1 inch press by 1 inch press by 1/2 inch female thread.
5) Will a carbon steel MegaPress fitting work on copper or stainless lines?
No. The 84555 is carbon steel and is intended for carbon steel pipe such as black iron. For copper you want a copper press fitting, and for stainless a stainless press fitting; mixing a carbon steel body onto those systems invites galvanic corrosion and the seal and jaw profile are not the same.
