Viega 17818 Propress Sealing Element 1-1/2 Inches Fkm Black for Cts Fitting

Product Description

The Viega 17818 is a ProPress sealing element designed for use with Viega ProPress CTS fittings in 1-1/2 inch pipe sizes. This replacement sealing element is made from FKM, a high-performance fluoroelastomer material that delivers reliable sealing performance in demanding plumbing and mechanical applications. FKM seals are well known for their resistance to high temperatures, chemicals, and oils, making them a preferred choice for professional plumbers and pipefitters working on systems that handle a variety of fluid types. The black color identifies this as an FKM compound element, which helps technicians quickly distinguish it from EPDM variants used for potable water systems. Viega ProPress is the original press pipe joining system and has set the standard for press-fit connections in the plumbing industry. The ProPress system eliminates the need for open-flame soldering, reducing job site fire risk and cutting labor time significantly. This sealing element fits inside ProPress CTS fittings and creates a watertight, pressure-rated connection when pressed with a compatible pressing tool and jaw set. Replacement sealing elements are commonly needed during fitting inspection, rework, or when upgrading a fitting to a different seal material for compatibility with the fluid being conveyed. The Viega 17818 is an imported product and is engineered to meet the exact fit and performance requirements of the Viega ProPress CTS fitting system. Plumbing contractors, mechanical contractors, and service technicians rely on genuine Viega sealing elements to maintain system integrity and ensure that press connections perform as designed over the long service life of the installation. Keeping replacement sealing elements on hand reduces downtime during repairs and system modifications.
