Viega MegaPress 4826 Carbon Steel Elbow 3/4 in 45
This press-fit elbow connects two 3/4 inch steel pipes at a 45 degree angle for non-potable water systems. The carbon steel body carries a zinc nickel-plated finish for corrosion resistance. An EPDM O-ring provides the seal when the fitting is pressed with compatible tooling. It suits installers who need a permanent, flame-free joint in hydronic or chilled-water piping.
Sustained load behaviour of the MegaPress 4826 elbow
The fitting is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 200 psi and a maximum operating temperature of 250 degrees F. These limits apply to continuous service conditions rather than short-term test peaks. The steel construction and pressed connection maintain structural integrity under steady thermal cycling and pressure fluctuations. No bolt holes or flanges are present, so the joint relies entirely on the pressed seal.
Checks before ordering the MegaPress 4826 fitting
Verify that the piping system uses 3/4 inch steel pipe approved for press-fit connections. Confirm the application is non-potable water, as the fitting is not certified for drinking water. Ensure you have access to a Viega-compatible press tool and the correct jaw set for 3/4 inch MegaPress fittings. The product carries no sale restrictions in any listed state.

Questions about this item
Does the 45-degree elbow generate noise, heat or draw power when installed in a system running all day?
No, the fitting has no moving parts and requires no electricity, so it produces no noise, no heat and consumes zero power during continuous operation.
What tool must I already own to make the press-fit connections on this carbon-steel elbow?
A compatible press tool with the correct jaw set for 3/4 in MegaPress fittings is required to crimp the EPDM O-ring seals on both ends.
Will the 4826 elbow press onto the 3/4 in carbon-steel pipe I already have in place?
Yes, the press-fit ends are made for 3/4 in carbon-steel pipe OD, so they seal on existing pipe of that material and size.
