  • Straight adapter design keeps flow path direct with 3 11/32 in overall length

Straight bronze adapter for 2 in to 3/4

This Viega 79860 adapter connects a 2 in FTG copper tube to a 3/4 in press-fit copper tube in a straight line. It is built from bronze with an EPDM O-ring for potable water systems. The fitting suits installers who need a direct size reduction without changing direction.

Press-fit installation eliminates open-flame work

The press-fit end allows a secure joint using a compatible press tool instead of soldering, which speeds up assembly and reduces fire risk on site. The FTG end slides into a 2 in copper fitting, so no separate coupling is required. The 3 11/32 in overall length keeps the joint compact inside walls or service cavities.

Bronze body and EPDM seal rated for 200 psi

The materials are selected for continuous potable water service at the rated maximum operating pressure without degradation. The adapter contains no bolt holes or flange, so it cannot be used where a flanged or bolted connection is specified. Installers needing a threaded, sweat or larger-bore transition will require a different fitting.
