This fitting creates a permanent, leak-free joint without open flame, using a pressing tool to mechanically compress the fitting onto copper tubing. It is intended for potable water, hydronic heating, and general plumbing applications where lead-free compliance is required. Plumbers and pipefitters install this union to join two sections of copper tubing in a straight-line configuration, particularly in retrofit or repair scenarios where torch access is restricted or prohibited.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis union is suited for both residential and light commercial plumbing installations. It is used wherever a straight copper press connection is needed on 3\/4-inch tubing runs, including domestic hot and cold water systems, radiant heating loops, and mechanical room piping. The ProPress system is widely adopted in new construction and renovation work where no-flame installation is a code, insurance, or site-safety requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead-free construction meets Safe Drinking Water Act compliance requirements for potable water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo-flame press connection eliminates the need for soldering or torch work at the joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnion configuration allows straight-line joining of two copper pipe sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard Viega ProPress pressing tools and jaw sets for 3\/4-inch fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePermanent mechanical connection suitable for concealed and in-wall installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for use within the Viega ProPress copper press fitting system on 3\/4-inch copper tubing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a Viega-compatible pressing tool with the appropriate 3\/4-inch jaw set.
