Viega ProPress XL Reducing Tee 3"×3"×2-1/2

This Viega ProPress XL reducing tee joins three copper tubes in a T configuration using press-fit connections. It suits plumbers and mechanical contractors working on potable-water systems who need a secure, flame-free joint. The fitting is made from copper with EPDM O-rings and includes a center stop dimple for consistent insertion depth.

200 psi maximum operating pressure

The fitting is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 200 psi, which determines whether it meets the design pressure of the intended water system. Verify the system pressure against this rating before specifying the part for commercial or residential potable-water installations.

Press-fit installation with center stop dimple

The center stop dimple provides a tactile stop so the installer knows when each tube is fully seated before pressing. A common issue is pressing the joint before the tube bottoms out on the dimple, which can lead to an incomplete seal and leaks during pressure testing.

Questions about this item

How does the 200 psi rating apply once the tee is pressed into a potable water system?

The 200 psi maximum operating pressure is the design limit for the pressed joint in potable water service; the EPDM O-ring and copper body maintain that seal at the rated pressure when installed with the correct press tool and jaw size.

What does the press-fit connection standard mean for tool compatibility on this reducing tee?

All three ends use the Viega ProPress XL press-fit profile, so you need an XL-series press tool with matching 3 in and 2-1/2 in jaws or rings to form each connection.

What clearance is required to fit the 7 5/8 in overall length into a pipe run?

The tee measures 7 5/8 in end-to-end with the center stop dimple; allow at least that much straight run plus room for the press tool to engage each jaw without obstruction.
