Viega 98475 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size pipe does the Viega 98475 MegaPress tee fit?
The Viega 98475 is a reducing tee sized 4 inch x 4 inch x 1-1/2 inch, so the run is 4 inch on both ends and the branch takes 1-1/2 inch pipe. All three ends are press connections (P1 x P2 x P3), so no threading, welding, or grooving is involved on any of the three ports.
2) Is the Viega 98475 MegaPress tee stainless or carbon steel?
It is 316 stainless steel, body and all three press ends. That is the corrosion-resistant grade, which matters if the line runs outdoors, in a wash-down area, or carries anything aggressive. Made in Germany.
3) Will a MegaPress tee work on standard black iron or schedule 40 pipe already in my building?
MegaPress fittings press onto IPS-size steel pipe, which is what makes them a retrofit tool: you cut, clean, and press rather than cutting threads or hot-working the line. The 98475 handles a 4 inch main with a 1-1/2 inch branch takeoff. Confirm the existing pipe is the matching IPS size at the point you intend to press, and that you have clear working room for a 4 inch press jaw or ring around the pipe.
4) What is Smart Connect on this Viega tee and why does it matter on a 4 inch line?
Smart Connect is a feature of the Viega press seal that lets an unpressed joint weep during pressure testing, so a connection you missed shows itself before the system is buttoned up. On a 4 inch run with a 1-1/2 inch branch you are making three separate presses on a single fitting, which is exactly where one gets forgotten.
5) How do I order the exact Viega 98475 tee and make sure I get the 316 stainless version?
Order by Viega part number 98475. That number is specifically the 316 stainless MegaPress tee in 4 x 4 x 1-1/2; Viega also builds MegaPress in carbon steel, so the part number is what separates them. Specify 98475 rather than describing the size if you need stainless on a spec job.
6) Is the Viega 98475 heavy enough to need support at the branch?
The fitting alone weighs 5.719 lbs, before any pipe load. On a 4 inch horizontal run, hang the main close to the tee and support the 1-1/2 inch branch rather than letting it cantilever off the press joint.
