ProPress Adapter 1" x 3/4
The Viega 79400 is a bronze crimp adapter fitting designed for potable water systems. It connects a 1 inch copper tube on the FTG side to a 3/4 inch male NPT thread on the other side using ProPress technology. An EPDM O-ring provides the seal for the joint.
Replaces Threaded Bronze Adapters
This fitting removes the need for threading copper pipe or applying solder and flux during installation. The press connection is made with a compatible tool in seconds, which is valuable when the water supply cannot be fully drained or when open flame is prohibited on site.
Rated 200 psi at 250 °F
Under sustained system pressure the bronze body and EPDM seal maintain integrity up to the rated limits. The straight adapter shape introduces minimal flow restriction while the 2 1/16 inch overall length fits standard piping layouts without requiring extra space.
