Viega 95650 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Viega MegaPress 95650 work on 3 inch black iron or carbon steel pipe?
Yes. The MegaPress 95650 is a press coupling with stop sized 3 inch by 3 inch, built for Schedule 10 through Schedule 40 black, galvanized and carbon steel pipe. It presses onto the pipe with a MegaPress jaw and actuator, so no threading, welding or soldering is needed. The body is 304 stainless steel.
2) What does the "with stop" mean on the Viega 95650 coupling, and when would I want one without a stop?
A coupling with stop has an internal shoulder in the middle, so each pipe end bottoms out at the same insertion depth. That makes it the right choice when both pipe ends are free and you can push them in. A stopless (slip) coupling has no shoulder and can slide along the pipe, which is what you need for a repair in a fixed run where neither end can move. The 95650 is the version with the stop.
3) Is the Viega 95650 a coupling or a tee?
It is a straight coupling, 3 inch by 3 inch, joining two pieces of 3 inch pipe in line. It has two press ends, not three, so it will not branch a line. For a 3 inch branch you need a MegaPress tee instead.
4) How much clearance do I need around the Viega 95650 MegaPress 3 inch coupling?
The fitting itself measures 5.984 inches long and 4.177 inches across, and weighs 2.438 lbs. Plan clearance beyond that for the press jaw, which on 3 inch MegaPress is a ring and actuator assembly that needs working room all the way around the joint. Tight ceiling cavities and close pipe spacing are the usual problem on 3 inch presses.
5) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 95650 and why does it matter on an inspection?
Smart Connect is a deliberate feature in the sealing element that lets an unpressed fitting leak under test pressure instead of holding. On a big steel run with dozens of joints, that is how you find the one connection the crew missed before the ceiling closes up. It does not replace pressing, it just makes a missed press obvious.
6) Is the Viega 95650 coupling stainless steel all the way through, and can I use it on galvanized pipe?
The body is 304 stainless steel. That makes it suitable on black iron and on galvanized steel pipe, which is the usual reason a 304 press coupling gets specified over a carbon steel one. Note the sealing element is an elastomer, not steel, so the media and temperature have to suit the seal grade you order.
7) What part number do I order for the Viega 3 inch MegaPress coupling with stop?
Order Viega part number 95650. It is the 3 inch by 3 inch MegaPress coupling with stop in 304 stainless steel, and it is made in Germany. There is one configuration, so there is no finish or seal option to specify on the order line.
