This fitting is part of the Viega ProPress system, which uses a cold-press joining method to create watertight, permanent connections without open flame or soldering. The tee is manufactured from copper that exceeds the wall thickness of Type K copper, providing a robust fitting suitable for potable water, heating, and cooling distribution piping. The 77477 meets or exceeds applicable North American plumbing codes and lead-free standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used in new construction and retrofit plumbing installations where speed and reliability are priorities. The ProPress system is widely adopted in commercial mechanical rooms, multifamily residential plumbing, and institutional facilities. It is particularly well suited for maintenance and repair applications where wet-line connections must be made without fully draining the system. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero-lead copper construction meets lead-free potable water requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold-press joining eliminates open flame and soldering on the job site\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnections are completed in four to seven seconds per joint using a compatible press tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eViega Smart Connect feature reveals unpressed connections during pressure testing, preventing missed joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for wet-line connections, reducing system downtime during repairs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavier wall thickness than Type K copper for added durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with the Viega ProPress system using 2-inch press-end tooling and jaw sets compatible with the ProPress fitting series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a Viega-compatible press tool with the correct 2-inch jaw or ring set.
