This fitting matches the listed tube sizes and 200 psi rating. It does not serve threads, flanges or larger diameters, so buyers needing those connections must choose a different fitting.

Questions about this item
What press tool and jaw size are required to install the 1" and 1/2" connections on this Viega 85642 tee?
You need a compatible press tool with 1" and 1/2" jaw sets to press the stainless-steel ends onto the tubing.
Can the 1/2" branch on this tee connect to existing copper pipe that is already in place?
Yes, if the existing copper is 1/2" nominal and you use a ProPress copper adapter, the press connection will seal without soldering.
How can I confirm the joint is leak-free after pressing the tee into the system?
Pressurise the line up to 200 psi and inspect each press connection; no water should appear at the 304 stainless sealing rings.
