Viega 95430 Megapress 316SS Press Union 1-1/2 in Fkm

Product Description

The VIEGA 95430 is a 1-1/2 inch MegaPress press union manufactured from 316 stainless steel with an FKM sealing element. This fitting connects two sections of pipe in a pressable stainless system without the need for threading, soldering, or welding. The press connection design allows licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors to make reliable, repeatable joints using a standard press tool. The 316 stainless steel construction provides strong resistance to corrosion in demanding mechanical and industrial piping applications. FKM seals are rated for a broad range of media and elevated temperatures, making this union appropriate for aggressive fluid service where standard EPDM would be unsuitable.

The 95430 is designed for use in MegaPress stainless steel press piping systems, which are commonly installed in commercial and industrial mechanical rooms, hydronic heating, process piping, and high-purity fluid distribution. The union configuration allows sections of a stainless press system to be disconnected for service or future modification without cutting pipe. This fitting is appropriate where a non-permanent, removable joint is required within a pressed stainless line.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel body for corrosion resistance in demanding fluid service
• FKM sealing element suited for elevated temperatures and aggressive media
• Press x Press (PxP) ends for tool-based connection without open flame
• Union design allows in-line disconnection for service or maintenance
• Compatible with the MegaPress press fitting system and standard press jaw tooling

Compatibility

Designed for use within the VIEGA MegaPress 4160 stainless steel press fitting system. Press ends accept standard MegaPress tooling for 1-1/2 inch connections.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified mechanical contractor using a compatible press tool and the correct MegaPress jaw or ring for 1-1/2 inch stainless fittings. Depressurize and drain the piping system fully before installation or disconnection of the union. Verify that the FKM sealing element is properly seated in the fitting before pressing. All work should comply with applicable local plumbing codes and the manufacturer's published installation instructions.
