IM-PP 599834 0320 ProPress Stainless
For use with Viega stainless steel tubing in ½ inch to 2 inches.
▶ Check the sealing element for correct t:
■ The tube end is not bent or damaged.
■ The tube is deburred.
■ The correct sealing element is in the tting.
■ The sealing element is undamaged.
■ The complete sealing element is in the bead.
▶ Measure insertion depth (see table below).
▶ Mark the proper insertion depth on the outside of the tube.
Improper insertion depth
Improper insertion depth may result in an improper seal.
■ Be sure to mark the correct insertion depth on the tube
before pressing the tting.
