Viega 95550 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does P x FTG mean on the Viega 95550 MegaPress 45 degree elbow?
P x FTG means one end is a press socket and the other is a fitting (street) end. The press end accepts 3 inch pipe; the FTG end is sized to slip into the press socket of another 3 inch MegaPress fitting, so you can join fitting to fitting without an extra piece of pipe between them. That is the whole point of a street elbow in tight work.
2) Do I need a regular 45 elbow or a street 45 like the Viega 95550?
Use the 95550 street version when the elbow has to land directly on another fitting, since its FTG end slips straight into a 3 inch MegaPress socket. If both ends of your run are pipe, a standard press by press 45 is the one you want instead. Mixing them up means either a stub of pipe you did not plan for or a joint you cannot make up.
3) Is the Viega 95550 a 3 inch fitting on both ends?
Yes, 3 inch by 3 inch. The press side takes 3 inch pipe and the street side matches a 3 inch MegaPress socket, so there is no size change through the elbow.
4) What material is the Viega 95550 MegaPress elbow made of, and can I use it on a potable or corrosive line?
The 95550 is 304 stainless steel. Stainless is what you choose when a carbon steel fitting would rust out on the line, and the 95550 is built in Germany. Confirm the sealing element matches your media before you press it.
5) What is the exact Viega part number to order for the 3 inch MegaPress 45 degree street elbow?
Viega part number 95550. Spec it as MegaPress 45 degree street elbow, 3 inch by 3 inch, P x FTG, 304 stainless steel, with Smart Connect technology.
6) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 95550 and does it change how I press it?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature built into the fitting. It is there so an unpressed joint shows itself during pressure testing rather than after the walls close up. It does not change the press itself: you still prep and press the 3 inch socket with the correct jaw for the size.
