Viega 90370 MegaPress reducer Smart Connect technology 316 stainless steel, 1-1/2'' x 3/4''

P x FTG means one end is a press socket that receives tube and the other is a fitting (street) end sized to slip into another press fitting's socket. On the Viega 90370, that lets you reduce from 1-1/2 inch to 3/4 inch without adding a coupling between fittings. Both ends are press connections, so you need the matching MegaPress jaw sizes and a press tool, not a torch.

It is 316 stainless steel. That is the corrosion resistant grade Viega uses for its stainless MegaPress line, so it suits wet or chemically aggressive environments rather than being limited to black iron service. Match it with stainless press fittings and valves on the same run to avoid mixing metals.

Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: an unpressed joint leaks during pressure test so the installer finds it before the system goes into service. On a run with dozens of joints, that is how you catch the one fitting a crew walked past. The 90370 carries it as part of the MegaPress design.

It is catalogued by Viega as a MegaPress reducer in the 1-1/2 inch by 3/4 inch size, with a press socket on one end and a fitting end on the other. Use it to step a 1-1/2 inch line down to 3/4 inch; if you need a branch takeoff, order a MegaPress reducing tee instead.
