Viega 90090 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Viega 90090 street elbow stainless or carbon steel, and what pipe is it for?
It is 316 stainless steel, so it is the stainless MegaPress fitting, intended for 1 inch stainless steel pipe rather than black iron. If your line is carbon steel pipe, you want the carbon steel MegaPress version instead, not this one.
2) Why pick a 45 degree street elbow instead of a regular 45 on a 1 inch press line?
A standard 45 has press sockets on both ends, so joining it to another fitting needs a length of pipe between them. The 90090 has a fitting end on one side, so it presses directly into the next MegaPress socket. Use it for offsets around obstructions where you have no room for a pipe stub.
3) What is Smart Connect on this Viega MegaPress fitting?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature built into the sealing element. During pressure testing an unpressed joint leaks noticeably so the installer can find it and press it, rather than discovering a missed connection after the system is in service. It is part of the 90090 as supplied.
4) How much space do I need to allow for the Viega 90090 fitting in a tight chase?
The fitting itself measures 3.319 inches long, 2.28 inches wide and 1.78 inches high, and weighs 0.648 lbs. Allow clearance beyond that for the press jaw to close around the socket, which is the real constraint in a tight chase or against a wall.
5) Is the Viega 90090 elbow threaded or does it need a press tool?
No threads on it. Both ends are press-type, so you need a press tool with the correct jaw for 1 inch MegaPress stainless. There is no solder, no thread cutting and no dope involved.
6) Is 316 stainless the right choice for a corrosive or washdown environment?
316 is the molybdenum-bearing stainless grade, which is why it gets specified in food plants, washdown areas and coastal or chemical exposure where 304 would pit. The 90090 is 316 stainless throughout the fitting body.
