Viega 95870 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size pipe does the Viega MegaPress 95870 flange fit?
The Viega 95870 MegaPress flange is a 1-1/4 inch fitting, so it presses onto 1-1/4 inch pipe. It is a single-size part, not adjustable, so the run it joins has to be 1-1/4 inch.
2) Is the Viega 95870 MegaPress fitting stainless or carbon steel?
It is 304 stainless steel. That matters if you are matching material through a run or specifying for a system where carbon steel press fittings are not acceptable.
3) Do I need to thread or weld the Viega MegaPress 95870 connection?
No. MegaPress is a cold press connection made with a press tool and the matching jaw, so there is no threading, no welding, and no open flame on the joint. That is the usual reason it gets specified for occupied buildings and retrofit work where hot work permits are a problem.
4) What does Smart Connect mean on the Viega 95870 MegaPress flange?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: a connection that has been left unpressed will leak during pressure testing so the installer can find it before the system is put into service. It is a MegaPress sealing element feature, not something you order separately.
5) How much clearance do I need to install the 1-1/4 inch MegaPress flange?
Plan for a fitting body of roughly 5.394 x 5.394 x 3.323 inches. In a tight chase or against a joist, that footprint plus room to get the press jaw around the fitting is the limiting factor, not the pipe itself.
6) What is a MegaPress flange used for compared with a press elbow or coupling?
A flange is how you transition a pressed pipe run to a bolted, gasketed connection, typically at a pump, valve, tank, or any piece of equipment that has to come out for service. Elbows and couplings are permanent joints in the run; the flange is the break point you can unbolt later. The 1-1/4 inch, 304 stainless 95870 presses on one end and bolts on the other.
7) What do I need to order with the Viega 95870 besides the flange itself?
The flange covers the press-to-bolted transition only. You still need the mating flange or equipment flange face, a gasket suited to your media and temperature, and bolts and nuts in a material compatible with 304 stainless. The press side requires a MegaPress-rated press tool and the correct 1-1/4 inch jaw.
8) How heavy is the Viega 95870 fitting for hanger and support planning?
The fitting weighs 2.658 lbs on its own. Add that to the wet weight of the pipe when you set hanger spacing near the connection.
