Viega 91795 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Viega 91795 press elbow work on 1 inch black iron pipe?
The press socket on the 91795 is sized 1 inch by 1 inch, so it presses onto 1 inch pipe. MegaPress fittings are the press system for black, galvanized and carbon steel pipe, and this one is built in 316 stainless steel.
2) Why choose a 316 stainless MegaPress elbow instead of the standard carbon steel version?
316 stainless resists corrosion far better than carbon steel, which is why it gets specified on lines where moisture, washdown, coastal air or aggressive media would attack a carbon body. If the run is ordinary dry black iron gas or sprinkler pipe indoors, the carbon steel MegaPress elbow covers it; the 316 version is for the corrosive-duty openings.
3) How much room do I need to fit the Viega 91795 45 degree street elbow in a tight chase?
Plan for a body roughly 3.319 inches long, 2.28 inches wide and 1.78 inches high. Also leave clearance for the press jaw to get square on the socket, which needs more space around the fitting than the fitting itself occupies.
4) Do I need a special press tool or jaw for a 1 inch MegaPress fitting?
Yes. The 91795 is pressed, not threaded or welded, so it takes a press tool with the MegaPress jaw or ring in the 1 inch size matching the socket. No threading, no dope, no torch, but the correct 1 inch jaw is not optional.
5) What is Smart Connect on this Viega MegaPress elbow and do I still have to pressure test?
Smart Connect is a feature of the Viega sealing element that deliberately leaks at an unpressed connection during testing, so a joint you missed shows itself instead of hiding behind the wall. It is a verification aid, not a substitute for the system pressure test your inspection requires.
