Viega 49554 Pureflow Press Tee 1x1x3/4 Inch Polymer

Product Description

The VIEGA 49554 is a PureFlow press tee fitting used in pressurized plumbing distribution systems. Manufactured from polymer, this tee connects two 1-inch runs to a 3/4-inch branch using a press end connection style, eliminating the need for soldering, threading, or adhesives at the joint. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial potable water systems where speed and clean connections are required. The press end style requires a compatible press tool to create a watertight mechanical crimp at each socket.

This tee is suited for use in domestic water distribution applications where reducing branch connections are needed. The 1 x 1 x 3/4-inch nominal sizing makes it appropriate for main-line runs feeding a smaller branch line to fixtures or zones. Its polymer construction offers corrosion resistance in potable water environments and keeps the fitting lightweight for overhead or concealed installations.

Key Features

• Press end connection style — no soldering, threading, or gluing required at the joint
• Polymer construction resists corrosion in potable water service
• Reducing branch configuration: 1 x 1 x 3/4 inch nominal for main-to-branch transitions
• Domestic-rated fitting suitable for potable water distribution
• Lightweight design simplifies handling in tight or overhead installation spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press fitting for use in PureFlow polymer press piping systems requiring a 1 x 1 x 3/4-inch reducing tee with press end connections.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a compatible press tool rated for polymer press fittings — verify tool and jaw compatibility with the VIEGA PureFlow system before beginning work. Shut off and depressurize the water supply line completely before cutting into any existing piping. This fitting should be installed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the IPC or applicable regional code. Inspect each pressed connection visually after crimping to confirm the indicator ring is fully seated.
