Viega 91520 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Viega 91520 PureFlow adapter connect to on each end?
The Viega 91520 is a press by female pipe thread adapter (P x FPT) in 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch. One end presses onto 1/2 inch PureFlow tubing with a press tool; the other end is a 1/2 inch female NPT thread that takes a male-threaded nipple, valve, or stub-out. If you need the thread to be male instead, the P x FPT configuration is the wrong part for that connection.
2) Can I use the Viega 91520 to transition PEX over to a threaded shutoff valve?
Yes, that is exactly the transition it makes. Press the fitting onto the 1/2 inch PureFlow tube run, then thread a 1/2 inch male NPT stop or valve into the female thread end. It is a 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch adapter, so no size step happens at the joint.
3) Is the Viega 91520 adapter body lead free for potable water?
It is a zero lead bronze body, which is what Viega uses on PureFlow press fittings intended for potable water service. Bronze is the stated material for the fitting.
4) How much room do I need for the Viega 91520 press adapter in a tight bay or behind a fixture?
The fitting is compact: 1.339 inches wide, 1.031 inches high, and 0.984 inches long, weighing 0.098 lbs. The governing clearance is not the fitting itself but the jaw of the press tool around it, so plan for tool swing on the press end when you are working inside a stud bay or behind a cabinet.
5) Will a bronze press adapter hold up better than a plastic PEX fitting at a threaded connection?
The 91520 uses a bronze body, which is the usual choice at threaded transitions because the female thread is being torqued against a male fitting during install and gets re-worked whenever a valve is replaced. Polymer fittings are lighter and cheaper but the thread is less tolerant of repeated make-up. For maintenance points you expect to break apart again, bronze is the configuration to spec.
6) What is the Viega part number and country of origin for the 1/2 inch PureFlow press x FPT bronze adapter?
Part number 91520, manufactured in Germany. Order it by that number when standardizing a job or a stockroom bin so you get the P x FPT bronze version rather than a male-thread or press-by-press fitting.
