Viega 90580 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe sizes does the Viega MegaPress 90580 tee connect?
The Viega 90580 MegaPress tee is a reducing tee sized 2-1/2 inch x 2-1/2 inch x 2 inch, so the run is 2-1/2 inch on both ends and the branch outlet is 2 inch. All three ends are press connections (P1 x P2 x P3), so no threading, grooving or welding is needed at any of the three joints.
2) Is the Viega 90580 MegaPress tee stainless or carbon steel?
It is 316 stainless steel, not carbon steel. That matters when you are choosing between MegaPress fittings: the 316 version is the one specified where the fluid or the environment would attack a carbon steel fitting body. The pipe itself is still black iron or carbon steel pipe in a MegaPress system; the 316 body is the fitting material.
3) What does Smart Connect do on a Viega MegaPress tee?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: the sealing element is formed so an unpressed joint leaks visibly during pressure testing instead of passing the test and failing later. On a three-outlet fitting like the 2-1/2 x 2-1/2 x 2 tee that is three separate presses to make, which is exactly where a missed crimp happens, so it is worth walking the line after test.
4) How much room do I need to fit a 2-1/2 inch MegaPress tee between joists or in a chase?
Plan on an envelope of roughly 7.953 inches long, 5.866 inches wide and 3.543 inches high for the 90580 tee body itself. Add clearance beyond that for the press jaw or ring to swing around each of the three outlets, which is usually the real constraint in a tight chase rather than the fitting.
5) Do I need a special press tool for a 2-1/2 inch MegaPress fitting?
Yes, size drives the tooling. At 2-1/2 inch the run outlets are above the range of standard press jaws, so they take a press ring with an actuator rather than a jaw clamped straight on the fitting. The 2 inch branch is at the top of the common jaw range. Confirm your tool's ring set covers 2-1/2 inch before scheduling the joint, because a 3.163 lb fitting in the air with the wrong ring on site is a lost day.
6) Is the Viega 90580 made in the USA?
No, the 90580 MegaPress tee is made in Germany. If you are bidding a federal or other domestic-preference job, flag that with the specifying engineer before you commit the fitting.
