Part of the Viega PureFlow line, this fitting incorporates Smart Connect Technology, which provides a visual indicator to verify proper seating before the press tool is engaged. The coupling body is manufactured from bright-finish bronze and meets zero lead requirements for potable water applications. At 0.1 pounds and compact overall dimensions, it installs quickly in tight spaces. Plumbers and pipefitters working on residential or light commercial water distribution systems rely on this fitting to transition between crimp and press connection types without additional adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is suited for potable water supply systems where a PEX crimp connection must meet an existing or new press-fit copper or press-compatible line. Typical install scenarios include new construction plumbing, remodel work, and repair applications where mixing PEX and press system components is required. The zero lead bronze construction makes it appropriate for drinking water lines subject to lead-free compliance requirements under applicable plumbing codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZero lead bronze construction meets lead-free potable water requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmart Connect Technology provides visual confirmation of proper fitting seating prior to pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne end accepts 3\/4 inch PEX crimp ring; other end accepts 3\/4 inch press connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright surface finish on bronze body\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact profile at 1.717 inches in length for installation in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style transition fitting for use in residential and light commercial PEX-based plumbing systems where a 3\/4 inch PEX crimp connection interfaces with a 3\/4 inch press fitting system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and applicable IPC or UPC requirements.
