It allows plumbers to join PEX tubing systems with press-style copper or press-compatible piping without additional adapters. The 3\/4-inch crimp end accepts standard PEX crimp rings, while the 1\/2-inch press end is designed for tool-actuated press-fit joining. This fitting is used in new construction and retrofit plumbing work where two different connection methods meet in the same run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where a PEX distribution system transitions to a press-fit branch or riser. It is commonly installed by licensed plumbers working on domestic hot and cold water supply systems. The fitting is useful in situations where a larger PEX main feed steps down to a smaller press-fit supply line, combining the flexibility of PEX with the speed of press-fit connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransitions from 3\/4-inch PEX crimp to 1\/2-inch press connection in one fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEliminates the need for separate adapters when joining PEX and press-fit systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard PEX crimp rings on the 3\/4-inch end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePress end designed for tool-actuated press-fit joining for fast, solder-free installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact design suited for tight spaces in residential and light commercial plumbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style transition fitting for plumbing systems that combine PEX crimp and press-fit connection methods in 3\/4-inch by 1\/2-inch configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the water supply before beginning work. The crimp end requires a calibrated PEX crimp tool and appropriate crimp rings; the press end requires a compatible press tool. Do not over-crimp or attempt the press connection without the correct jaw size for the fitting diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrimp End Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePress End Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX Crimp x Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 691514443607\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VIEGA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 44360\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VIEGA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138260828466,"sku":"44360","price":21.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305528072.jpg?v=1778251908","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/viega-44360-pex-crimp-press-transition-coupling-3-4x1-2","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
