Viega 91730 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Viega 91730 press elbow stainless or carbon steel, and what pipe can it go on?
The 91730 body is 316 stainless steel, so it belongs on stainless steel pipe systems rather than black iron. MegaPress carbon steel fittings and MegaPressG are separate lines; match the fitting material to the pipe you are pressing.
2) Do I need a street elbow or a regular press x press elbow?
Use the street version, like the 91730, when the turn lands directly on another fitting such as a tee or a valve adapter, since the FTG end inserts into that fitting's press socket. If you are turning in the middle of a pipe run with pipe on both sides, a press x press elbow is the right part instead.
3) Is the Viega 91730 a 3/4 inch fitting on both ends?
Yes, 3/4 x 3/4 inch. Both ends are 3/4 inch, but they are not the same kind of end: the FTG side is sized to insert into a 3/4 inch press socket, the P side presses onto 3/4 inch pipe. No reducing is involved.
4) How much space does the Viega 91730 MegaPress street elbow need in a tight chase?
Overall it measures 3.622 x 3.047 x 1.496 inches and weighs 0.417 lbs. Allow clearance beyond that for the press jaw to wrap the socket, which is usually what decides whether the fitting goes in a tight chase, not the fitting itself.
5) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 91730, and does it mean I can skip pressing a joint?
Smart Connect is a feature of the sealing element that lets an unpressed connection leak visibly during pressure testing, so a missed joint shows up before the walls close. It is a verification aid, not a substitute for pressing. Every joint on the 91730 still has to be pressed with the correct jaw for a 3/4 inch MegaPress fitting.
6) Will a 316 stainless press elbow hold up in a washdown or corrosive mechanical room?
316 stainless is the grade chosen for corrosion resistance in wet and chemically aggressive environments, which is why the 91730 is specified where carbon steel fittings would rust. Facility and MRO buyers standardizing a stainless system can keep the whole run in one material by using stainless fittings throughout.
