Viega 95865 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe sizes does the Viega MegaPress 95865 tee connect?
The 95865 MegaPress tee is a reducing tee: 1-1/4 inch run x 1-1/4 inch run x 1 inch branch. All three ends are press connections, so the run takes 1-1/4 inch pipe straight through and the outlet drops to 1 inch without a separate reducer or bushing.
2) Is the Viega 95865 tee stainless or carbon steel, and can I use it on a stainless pipe system?
It is 304 stainless steel, body and all three press ends. That matters because MegaPress is also sold in a carbon steel version for black iron pipe, and mixing carbon steel fittings onto stainless pipe invites galvanic corrosion. Use the 95865 where the pipe itself is stainless or where the service fluid rules out carbon steel.
3) I need a straight 1-1/4 inch tee, not a reducing one. Is the 95865 the right part?
No. The 95865 reduces the branch to 1 inch. If all three openings have to take 1-1/4 inch pipe, you want the full-size 1-1/4 inch MegaPress stainless tee instead. Read the dimension as run x run x branch: 1-1/4 x 1-1/4 x 1.
4) What does Smart Connect technology on a MegaPress fitting actually do for the installer?
Smart Connect is a deliberate feature in the sealing element that lets an unpressed joint leak when the system is tested. The point is detection: on a 20 or 30 joint run you can pressurize and see immediately which connection was missed, instead of finding it after the ceiling is closed. It does not change the pipe prep or the press tool jaw you need.
5) Can I press the 1-1/4 inch and 1 inch ends on this tee with the same tool?
No, not with the same jaw. Each MegaPress press end requires the jaw matched to that nominal size, so a 95865 needs 1-1/4 inch jaws for the two run ends and a 1 inch jaw for the branch. Plan the press tool kit around both sizes before you take the fitting to the rack.
6) How much space do I need to fit the Viega 95865 tee into a rack of pipe?
The fitting measures 6.535 x 3.831 x 2.205 inches overall and weighs 1.43 lbs. In tight ceiling work the governing number is usually not the fitting body but the clearance the press jaw needs to swing around each of the three ends, so allow working room on all three legs, not just the length of the tee.
7) Do I need to thread or weld pipe to use this tee?
No. All three outlets are press ends, so the pipe is cut, deburred, marked for depth, inserted and pressed cold. No threading, no cutting oil, no hot work permit, no welding. That is the main reason MegaPress gets specified for retrofits in occupied buildings where a torch is a problem.
8) What is the exact Viega part number and where is it made?
Order it as Viega 95865. It is manufactured in Germany. If a submittal asks for country of origin on the stainless fittings package, that is the line to put down.
