Viega Mpa5002 0040001 Copper Press Fitting Elbow 1/2 in

Product Description

The VIEGA mpa5002 0040001 is a 1/2-inch copper press fitting elbow from the MaxiPro product line, engineered for refrigeration and air conditioning systems. It forms a secure, permanent, leak-proof joint without open flame or brazing, using a press-tool connection method. The elbow configuration allows directional changes in refrigerant line runs. Licensed HVAC and refrigeration technicians are the primary installers, and the fitting is suited for both residential and light commercial applications.

This fitting is designed for use in refrigerant line sets and AC system piping where a reliable mechanical joint is required. The MaxiPro system is commonly used in new construction and retrofit installations where flame-free connections are preferred or required by local code. The 1/2-inch size fits standard refrigerant line applications in split systems and other HVAC and refrigeration equipment.

Key Features

• Flame-free press connection eliminates brazing and open-flame risk on the job site
• Permanent, leak-proof joint suitable for refrigeration and air conditioning service
• Copper construction provides corrosion resistance and compatibility with refrigerant lines
• Elbow configuration enables 90-degree directional changes in refrigerant piping runs
• 1/2-inch size fits standard residential and light commercial refrigerant line diameters

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press fitting replacement for 1/2-inch copper refrigerant line applications in refrigeration and air conditioning systems using the VIEGA MaxiPro press system.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a compatible press tool and jaw set rated for the MaxiPro fitting series. Shut down and recover refrigerant from the system before working on any refrigerant lines. Follow local mechanical codes and EPA Section 608 refrigerant handling regulations. Verify the press connection is fully seated before actuating the press tool.
