Press-fit bronze union trap
The Viega 79710 ProPress union trap joins 1 in copper tubing to a 1 in female NPT thread using a press-fit connection. Its bronze body and EPDM sealing ring are rated for potable water service up to 200 psi and 250 °F. The fitting meets ASTM B75 and ASTM B88 standards for material quality and dimensional accuracy.
Ideal for copper press systems.
Installers who use ProPress tooling on copper pipe will find this union trap fits directly into their workflow without soldering or threading the copper side. Projects that rely solely on threaded joints or that require a different pipe material on the press side cannot use this fitting.
Connection method decides fit
The defining specification is the press-fit by FNPT straight union configuration; if the piping design calls for press-to-press, press-to-sweat or any other end combination, this part will not suit the assembly.

Questions about this item
What does the 200 psi rating mean when this union trap is installed in a potable water line?
It indicates the maximum continuous operating pressure the bronze fitting and EPDM seal are designed to handle without leaking or deforming.
How do the ASTM B75 and ASTM B88 standards affect what this press-fit × FNPT union can be used for?
They confirm the bronze body meets the material and dimensional requirements for copper tube and pipe installations in plumbing systems.
What clearance is needed to fit the 2 7/8 in straight union between a 1 in press-fit copper tube and a 1 in FNPT threaded pipe?
The overall length of 2 7/8 in is the space required between the two pipe ends for the union to seat and seal properly.
