It incorporates Smart Connect technology, which features a leak path built into the fitting sleeve that allows an unpressed connection to be identified during pressure testing before the system is put into service. This fitting is installed using a compatible ProPress pressing tool and requires no open flame, solder, or flux. Plumbers and pipefitters working on commercial and residential copper piping systems will find this fitting suited to fast, reliable installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis elbow is used in plumbing applications where a 45-degree directional change is needed in a 3\/4 inch copper line. The ProPress system is widely used in residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, and mechanical piping where press-fit connections are preferred over soldered joints. It is appropriate for retrofit work as well as new construction where speed and code compliance with press-fitting standards are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmart Connect technology enables detection of unpressed connections during pressure testing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePress-fit installation eliminates the need for open flame, solder, or flux\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch by 3\/4 inch copper construction for consistent performance in copper piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree angle provides precise directional routing in tight or angled run configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.153 pounds, reducing handling fatigue during high-volume installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with the Viega ProPress press-fitting system in 3\/4 inch copper plumbing applications.

Shut off and depressurize the water supply before cutting into any existing line. Always conduct a system pressure test after installation to confirm all connections are fully pressed, which is where the Smart Connect feature provides a critical verification step. Refer to local plumbing codes and the applicable IPC or IFGC standards for press-fit fitting requirements in your jurisdiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches x 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: ProPress\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plumbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.153 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 77023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VIEGA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138501771570,"sku":"77023","price":25.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305527968.jpg?v=1778257864","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/viega-77023-propress-45-degree-copper-elbow-3-4-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
