Viega 95580 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe sizes does the Viega MegaPress 95580 stainless tee connect?
The 95580 MegaPress tee is a 2-1/2 inch x 2-1/2 inch x 2 inch reducing tee. The run is 2-1/2 inch on both ends and the branch outlet steps down to 2 inch, so you can take a 2 inch branch off a 2-1/2 inch main without adding a separate reducer. All three ends are press connections.
2) How much clearance do I need to fit a 2-1/2 inch MegaPress tee in a joist bay or chase?
Plan around 7.953 inches of length, 5.787 inches of width and 3.543 inches of height for the 95580 tee body, plus room to get the press jaw or ring fully around each of the three ends. At 3.174 pounds it is light enough to hang on the pipe while you press, but tight ceiling cavities are usually limited by jaw swing, not the fitting.
3) Can I thread or weld the Viega 95580 tee instead of pressing it?
No. All three ends of the 95580 are press ends, with no threads and no weld prep. If your branch has to be threaded or welded, this is the wrong fitting for that leg; you would press this tee and transition with a separate press-to-thread adapter at the 2 inch branch.
4) Is the Viega 95580 tee suitable for black iron or carbon steel pipe systems?
MegaPress fittings press onto schedule 5 through schedule 40 black, galvanized or carbon steel pipe. The 95580 is the 304 stainless steel version of the fitting body, which is what you use where the fitting itself needs corrosion resistance. Pipe size must match the stated 2-1/2 inch run and 2 inch branch.
5) What does Smart Connect do on this Viega MegaPress tee?
Smart Connect is the feature on the 95580 tee that deliberately leaks at an unpressed connection during pressure testing, so an unpressed joint shows itself before the system is closed up. It does not change the pipe size or the press tool you need.
6) Why choose a 304 stainless MegaPress tee over the standard carbon steel one?
The fitting material is 304 stainless steel, which is what specifiers call out where the fitting is exposed to moisture, washdown or a corrosive atmosphere and a carbon steel body would rust at the joint. For dry interior gas or compressed air runs, the standard carbon steel MegaPress fitting in the same 2-1/2 x 2-1/2 x 2 inch configuration does the same job.
