It joins a 1-1\/2-inch nominal line to a 3\/4-inch nominal branch or continuation, allowing a diameter reduction within a single fitting. The body is constructed from polymer, making it lightweight and compatible with cross-linked polyethylene tubing systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting during new construction and retrofit work where flow distribution or line-size changes are required in domestic water or hydronic applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where PEX press technology is specified. The press-style end connection eliminates open flame during installation, making it appropriate for concealed spaces and fire-restricted assemblies. It fits within the Viega PureFlow system, which is widely used in potable water distribution, radiant heating supply and return lines, and other low-to-medium pressure piping layouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces from 1-1\/2 inch nominal to 3\/4 inch nominal in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePEX press end style — no soldering, brazing, or open flame required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolymer construction — corrosion-resistant and compatible with PEX tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart of the Viega PureFlow V5615 fitting family for system consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact reducing coupling profile minimizes installation footprint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style fitting for use within the Viega PureFlow PEX press system, compatible with 1-1\/2-inch and 3\/4-inch nominal PEX tubing where press-style connections are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed plumber using a Viega-compatible press tool and the correct jaw set for each tubing size. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before pressing any fittings. Press connections must be made per the manufacturer's procedure — do not use this fitting with crimp or clamp-style PEX tooling. Local plumbing codes, including applicable IPC requirements, govern inspection and approval of PEX press installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel\u003c\/strong\u003e: V5615\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches nominal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch nominal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polymer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducing Coupling\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: 49348\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VIEGA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525267882290,"sku":"VPURRED11234","price":18.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3ecedc391e4f8cd43176b0794fff1e37_c7c80bec-5385-4794-9e99-56b071750af0.jpg?v=1785468981","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/viega-49348-pureflow-v5615-reducing-coupling-pex-press","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
