Viega VIEGREDFTGC112 Propress Pipe Reducer 1 X 1/2 Inches Copper Reducing Coupling

Product Description

The Viega VIEGREDFTGC112 is a ProPress copper pipe reducer designed for professional plumbing installations. This reducing coupling connects pipes of two different sizes, stepping down from a 1-inch nominal pipe to a 1/2-inch nominal pipe. It features a fitting end on one side and a press end on the other, making it compatible with the Viega ProPress system. Plumbers and pipefitters rely on press-fit connections because they eliminate the need for open flame soldering. This reduces job site risk and speeds up installation time significantly. The ProPress system uses a pressing tool to create a watertight, permanent connection in seconds. That makes this reducer a practical choice for commercial plumbing, residential repairs, and mechanical room work where speed and reliability matter. The VIEGREDFTGC112 is constructed from copper, a material well known for its durability, corrosion resistance, and long service life in potable water and hydronic systems. Copper fittings meet strict plumbing codes in most jurisdictions and are trusted by licensed plumbers across North America. This reducer is rated for pressures up to 200 psi, making it suitable for standard domestic water supply and low-pressure hydronic heating systems. It handles temperatures from 0 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit, covering a wide range of hot and cold water applications. The overall length of this fitting is 2.44 inches, which helps when planning rough-in layouts and fitting into tight mechanical spaces. Whether you are transitioning between pipe sizes in a supply line, a branch line, or a retrofit application, this copper reducer delivers a clean, code-compliant connection with minimal labor. It is compatible with standard Type L and Type M copper tubing commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems.
