Copper Reducing Tee 1-1/2" x 1/2
This Viega ProPress 2918 fitting joins two 1-1/2 inch copper tubes with a 1/2 inch branch using press-fit connections on all three sides. It is made for potable-water systems and includes a rolled centre stop with an EPDM O-ring for a secure seal.
Press-Fit System Limits 200 psi
The press-fit joints are rated to a maximum operating pressure of 200 psi, so the tee must not be used in systems that exceed this pressure. Copper tube dimensions must match the stated sizes exactly for the press tool to form a reliable joint.
Replaces Soldered Reducing Tees
This fitting replaces traditional soldered copper reducing tees, removing the need for open flame, flux and solder on the job site. The jump is worth it when installation speed, fire-safety restrictions or limited workspace make press connections the preferred method.

Questions about this item
Which Viega ProPress 2918 reducing tee size should I select for a 1-1/2" main line with a 1/2" branch?
This fitting matches a 1-1/2" run on both ends and a 1/2" branch, so choose it when your main line is 1-1/2" copper and the take-off is 1/2".
What does the 200 psi rating mean when the tee is pressed onto copper tube in a potable-water system?
The joint is rated for 200 psi maximum operating pressure once the press connection is made with the EPDM O-ring and rolled center stop.
How does the press-fit interface limit the tools and tube preparation I can use?
The three press-fit ends require a compatible press tool and jaws; the rolled center stop sets insertion depth, and no soldering or threading is needed.
