Copper Press-Fit Street Elbow
The Viega ProPress 0926.1XL is a copper 45-degree street elbow designed for potable water systems. It connects a 2-1/2 inch press-fit end to a 2-1/2 inch FTG end using a flameless press tool. The EPDM O-ring seals at up to 200 psi and 250 degrees F. It meets ASTM B75 and ASTM B88 standards.
EPDM Seal and Press Connection
The factory-installed EPDM O-ring removes the need for flux, solder or open flame during installation. Pressing the fitting creates a permanent, leak-resistant joint on compatible copper tubing. This method reduces installation time compared to traditional sweating and eliminates fire-hazard concerns on site. The 45-degree angle allows directional changes in tight runs.
Verify Tubing and Press Tool Compatibility
Confirm that your existing copper tubing matches the 2-1/2 inch size for both the press-fit and FTG ends. Ensure you have a press tool and jaw set rated for this diameter and approved for Viega ProPress XL fittings. The system pressure and temperature must not exceed 200 psi or 250 degrees F. This fitting is not intended for gas, oil or non-potable applications.

Questions about this item
Will the EPDM O-ring need periodic replacement on this 2-1/2" ProPress elbow?
The EPDM O-ring is factory-sealed inside the copper body and designed to last the life of the fitting; no scheduled replacement is required.
What pressure limit governs continuous service at 250 °F for this street elbow?
The fitting is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 200 psi at its 250 °F temperature limit.
Does the copper body run hot or create noise when hot water circulates all day?
Copper conducts heat so the elbow will reach water temperature, but the press-fit joint itself adds no vibration or noise.
