Viega 95355 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size pipe does the Viega 95355 MegaPress reducer connect?
The Viega 95355 MegaPress reducer joins 3/4 inch to 1/2 inch, with a P x FTG configuration: the 3/4 inch end is a press socket that receives pipe, and the 1/2 inch FTG end is sized to slip into the socket of another 1/2 inch press fitting rather than accepting pipe itself. Plan your run accordingly, because an FTG end will not take a cut pipe end.
2) Is the 95355 a tee or a straight reducing coupling?
The 95355 is a reducer, a two-end fitting that steps 3/4 inch down to 1/2 inch. If you need to branch a line in three directions, you want a MegaPress tee instead, and if you need to reduce only the branch, look for a reducing tee rather than this part.
3) Is the Viega 95355 MegaPress fitting rated for black iron or carbon steel pipe, and what is it made of?
The 95355 reducer body is 304 stainless steel. MegaPress is Viega's press system for threadable steel pipe, so the fitting presses onto the pipe rather than being threaded or welded. Match the fitting material to your piping system and media before ordering.
4) How much room do I need to fit a 3/4 x 1/2 MegaPress reducer in a tight chase?
Overall length is 2.957 inches, with height and width both at 1.264 inches. That gives you the envelope for the fitting body, but press fittings also need clearance for the jaw of the press tool around the fitting, so the usable space in a chase or against joists has to be larger than the fitting itself.
5) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 95355 and why does it matter on inspection?
Smart Connect is the feature built into the 95355 MegaPress fitting that leaves an unpressed connection deliberately leaking a small amount during pressure testing, so a joint somebody missed shows itself before the wall closes up. On a large commercial run with dozens of presses, that is what keeps a callback from turning into demolition.
6) Do I need to thread or solder the Viega 95355, or can one crew install it?
No threading, soldering, or welding. The 95355 is a press fitting, installed cold with a press tool and the correct jaw for the size, which means no hot work permit and no flame watch in an occupied building. You do need the pipe cut square, deburred, and marked to proper insertion depth per Viega's instructions.
7) Where is the Viega 95355 MegaPress reducer manufactured?
Made in Germany. For public and institutional work with domestic-sourcing language in the spec, that matters, so check your project requirements before you commit the fitting to a submittal.
