Viega 91240 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What kind of connection does the Viega 91240 MegaPress adapter have on each end?
The Viega 91240 is a P x FPT adapter: one press end and one female NPT threaded end, both 1/2 inch. So it takes you from 1/2 inch press-connect pipe to a 1/2 inch male-threaded component, like a gauge, valve tailpiece, or threaded nipple.
2) Is the Viega 91240 MegaPress fitting stainless or carbon steel?
It is 316 stainless steel, body and all. That matters if you are running on a line where carbon steel press fittings would corrode, or where the system fluid or the surrounding environment is aggressive. Note that 316 stainless press fittings are a different product family than the carbon steel MegaPress line, so match the fitting material to the pipe and system you are working on.
3) Can I thread a 1/2 inch male NPT valve straight into the Viega 91240?
Yes. The FPT end is 1/2 inch female pipe thread, so any 1/2 inch male NPT nipple, valve, or fixture connector threads directly in with sealant or tape. The other end presses onto 1/2 inch pipe.
4) What does Smart Connect on the Viega 91240 actually do for me on the job?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: an unpressed fitting leaks visibly during pressure test rather than holding and failing later. On a run with a dozen joints it is how you find the one you missed before the wall closes up.
5) How much room do I need around the Viega 91240 1/2 inch adapter?
The adapter measures 2.311 inches long with a 1.264 inch height and 1.264 inch width, and weighs 0.234 lbs. Clearance is the thing to watch though, since the press tool jaw needs space around the press socket, not just the fitting envelope.
6) Is the Viega 91240 a tee or a straight adapter?
It is a two-end adapter, press on one side and 1/2 inch female thread on the other. It has two ports, not three, so it will not branch a line. For a branch you need an actual 316 stainless press tee in the same size.
7) Where is the Viega 91240 MegaPress fitting manufactured?
Made in Germany. If you are filing submittals or country-of-origin documentation on an institutional or federally funded job, that is the origin to list for this fitting.
