System Description
Viega MegaPress and MegaPressG
are safe, reliable, and economical
steel pipe installation systems that
use modern cold press connection
technology for a wide assortment of
more than 200 fittings in dimensions
ranging from ½" to 2".
Pipe: Schedule 5 to schedule
40 Black steel pipe from ½" to 2" for
Viega MegaPress. Schedule 40 black
pipe for Viega MegaPressG.
Viega Smart Connect feature: By
means of the Smart Connect feature
on Viega MegaPress Systems
fittings, an unpressed connection
can be recognized by escaping
water, or by a drop in pressure,
when testing the system. Fitting
connections without the Smart
Connect feature may not leak
initially; however, later they can
unseat during system operations.
The Smart Connect feature is
designed to protect from the
potential risk of unpressed fittings.
