Copper press-fit elbow for potable water systems
The Viega ProPress 77028 is a 45-degree elbow that joins two 1-inch copper tubes using press-fit connections on both ends. It is built for potable-water installations where a secure, flame-free joint is required.
Replaces soldered or threaded copper elbows
The press-fit design removes the need for open-flame soldering or pipe threading, cutting installation time and eliminating fire-hazard permits. The jump is worth it on retrofit jobs, occupied buildings or any site where hot-work approvals delay progress.
Limited to copper tube and 200 psi at 250 °F
The fitting meets ASTM B75 and ASTM B88 and carries an EPDM O-ring rated for 200 psi maximum operating pressure and 250 °F maximum temperature. It cannot be used with steel, plastic or dissimilar-metal tubing, nor in systems that exceed those pressure or temperature limits.

Questions about this item
What copper tube size fits the 1 in ProPress 45° elbow?
Both ends accept 1 in copper tube size for a straight press-fit connection.
How do you install the 77028 elbow and what step is often missed?
Insert tube fully into each press-fit end, then crimp with a ProPress tool; skipping the depth mark check causes leaks.
When should the EPDM O-ring on this fitting be replaced?
Replace the O-ring if you see cracking, hardening, or any weeping at the joint after the system reaches 250 Degrees F.
