Viega VIEGUCFIP114 Propress 79715 Pipe Union 1-1/4 Inches Press X Fnpt Bronze Lead Free

Product Description

The Viega VIEGUCFIP114 is a lead free bronze pipe union designed for professional plumbing and mechanical systems. This fitting carries the ProPress 79715 designation and features a 1-1/4 inch nominal size with a Press x Female National Pipe Thread (FNPT) end style. It is built for licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors who need a reliable, code-compliant union connection in copper or compatible piping systems.

A pipe union allows two sections of pipe to be joined and later disconnected without cutting or threading. This is critical in maintenance-heavy systems where components like water heaters, pumps, boilers, and backflow preventers need periodic service or replacement. The press end of this fitting eliminates the need for open flame soldering, making installation faster and safer in tight spaces or areas where hot work permits are restricted. The FNPT end connects directly to threaded female ports on equipment, valves, or other fittings.

This union is rated for pressures up to 200 psi and handles temperatures from 0 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suitable for domestic hot and cold water systems, hydronic heating lines, and light commercial plumbing applications. The bronze construction resists corrosion and holds up well in both wet and dry service environments. The lead free designation ensures compliance with NSF 61 and NSF 372 standards as well as the federal Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act, making it approved for potable water installations. The overall length of the fitting is approximately 2.97 inches, which helps with planning rough-in dimensions in close quarters.
