Viega 90165 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe sizes does the Viega MegaPress 90165 tee connect?
The MegaPress 90165 is a reducing tee sized 2 inch x 2 inch x 3/4 inch, so the run is 2 inch on both ends and the branch drops to 3/4 inch. All three ends are press connections (P1 x P2 x P3), not threaded or grooved, so you need a press tool with the matching 2 inch and 3/4 inch jaws or rings to make up the joint.
2) Is the Viega 90165 MegaPress tee carbon steel or stainless?
It is 316 stainless steel, body and all three press ends. That is the stainless MegaPress family, not the carbon steel version, so it suits service where corrosion resistance matters and it will not be mistaken for a black-pipe fitting on a job walk. Match it to stainless or compatible pipe, not to a carbon steel MegaPress run.
3) Does the MegaPress 90165 tee have the Smart Connect feature, and what does it do for inspection?
Yes. The 90165 tee is built with Viega's Smart Connect technology, which leaves a deliberate leak path at an unpressed joint so a pressure or leak test reveals any connection the installer missed before the system is closed in. On a tee with three ends that matters, since one unpressed branch is easy to overlook.
4) Can I use a press tee like the Viega 90165 instead of welding a 3/4 inch branch into a 2 inch stainless line?
That is exactly the case for it. A pressed 316 stainless tee takes the branch off a 2 inch line cold, with no hot work permit, no purge and no welder on site. The trade-off is tooling: every one of the three ends is a press connection, so you need the press tool and correct jaws rather than a torch. For threaded takeoffs you would want a different fitting type, since this one offers no threads.
5) What part number and manufacturer should I spec for a Viega 2 x 2 x 3/4 stainless press tee?
Spec it as Viega MegaPress part number 90165, a 316 stainless steel reducing tee, 2 inch x 2 inch x 3/4 inch, manufactured in Germany. Quoting the 90165 number avoids getting the carbon steel equivalent or an all-2-inch straight tee by mistake.
