Product Description
The VIEGA 77052 is a 3/4-inch copper 90-degree street elbow manufactured under the ProPress product line and featuring Smart Connect technology. This fitting connects press-style on one end and fits into a standard fitting socket on the other, allowing direction changes in copper piping systems without soldering. It is used in residential and light commercial plumbing installations where speed and flame-free joining are priorities. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting using a compatible press tool. The copper construction provides corrosion resistance and long service life in potable water and hydronic applications.
This street elbow is suited for 3/4-inch copper piping systems in plumbing applications. The press-by-fitting configuration makes it useful in tight spaces or retrofit situations where a standard elbow would require an additional coupling. Smart Connect technology includes an indicator that allows an installer to verify whether a connection has been pressed, reducing the chance of an unpressed fitting going undetected before system pressurization. It is appropriate for residential plumbing, light commercial water distribution, and similar piping systems.
Key Features
- Smart Connect technology provides a visual indicator to identify unpressed connections before pressure testing
- Flame-free press connection eliminates the need for soldering or open flame during installation
- 90-degree street elbow configuration allows direction changes while reducing total fitting count
- Copper construction suits potable water and hydronic plumbing systems
- Press x Fitting end configuration compatible with standard copper socket fittings on one end
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style press fitting replacement for 3/4-inch copper plumbing systems using press-style connection tools.
Installation Notes
Installation is performed by licensed plumbers using a manufacturer-compatible press tool sized for the 3/4-inch connection. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before cutting into any existing line. Press fittings must be fully seated before pressing, and Smart Connect indicators should be verified after pressing to confirm complete connections. Follow all applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines for potable water piping installations.
