Viega 84915 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does P x FTG mean on the Viega MegaPress 84915 45 degree elbow?
P x FTG means one end is a press socket and the other end is a fitting (street) end. The press socket takes 1 inch pipe; the FTG end is sized to slip into another 1 inch press socket, so you can go fitting-to-fitting without an extra coupling. That's what makes it a street elbow rather than a standard 45.
2) Is the Viega 84915 MegaPress elbow suitable for black iron gas or steel pipe runs?
It's a carbon steel press fitting sized 1 inch by 1 inch, made to join black iron and carbon steel pipe without threading or welding. Carbon steel body means it is not intended for potable water service, where copper or stainless press is used instead.
3) How much space does the 1 inch MegaPress 45 degree street elbow need in a tight chase?
Overall the fitting measures 4.409 x 3.094 x 1.78 inches and weighs 0.683 lbs. Plan clearance beyond that for the press tool jaw to wrap the socket, which is the real limiting factor in a tight chase or against a joist.
4) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 84915 and why does it matter on the job?
Smart Connect is Viega's feature that lets an unpressed connection leak intentionally during pressure testing, so an inspector or installer can spot a joint that was missed before the system is put in service. On a run with several 45s it's the difference between finding the miss at test and finding it after ceilings close.
5) Do I need a street elbow or a regular 45 for my 1 inch press run?
Use the 84915 street configuration when you are coming straight out of another press fitting or a socket and want to change direction 45 degrees with no coupling between them. If both sides of the turn are pipe, a plain press x press 45 is the right part instead. Mixing them up is the usual cause of a short cut or an extra joint.
