Viega 98505 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Viega 98505 MegaPress elbow stainless or carbon steel?
It is 316 stainless steel, body and all. That matters when you are running in a corrosive or washdown environment, or on a stainless pipe system where you do not want to mix a carbon steel fitting into the line.
2) Will a 4 inch MegaPress 45 degree street elbow fit in a tight chase or close to a wall?
Plan the space around it. The 4 inch 98505 elbow measures 11.469 x 8.134 x 5.193 inches, so it is a large assembly before you even allow clearance for the press tool jaw or chain to wrap the socket. On a 4 inch press connection the tool ring needs room all the way around the fitting, which is usually the limiting factor in a chase, not the elbow itself.
3) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 98505 and why should an inspector care?
Smart Connect is the feature built into the sealing element of the MegaPress fitting that deliberately leaks a small amount during pressure testing if the joint has not been pressed. On a 4 inch line with a lot of joints, it gives you and the inspector a way to find an unpressed connection before the system goes into service rather than after.
4) Can I press the Viega 98505 by hand or do I need a specific tool?
A press connection in 4 inch size is made with a powered press tool and the matching large diameter ring and actuator, not a hand tool. The 98505 ships as the fitting only, so the tool, ring and any pipe or additional couplings are a separate line on your order.
5) What part number do I order for the Viega 4 inch stainless 45 degree street elbow?
Viega model 98505. One size only, 4 inch by 4 inch, in 316 stainless with FTG x P ends, so there is no finish or configuration choice to specify when you order it.
6) Where is the Viega MegaPress 98505 manufactured?
Made in Germany. That is useful if you are filing country of origin documentation on a government or institutional job where domestic or allied sourcing has to be declared.
