  • Item Count1
  • Press-fit copper tee joins three 2-1/2 in lines without soldering
  • EPDM O-ring seal rated for 200 psi potable water systems
  • Center-stop dimple ensures correct insertion depth on every joint

Copper press-fit tee for 2-1/2 in lines

This Viega ProPress tee joins three 2-1/2 in copper tubes with press-fit connections on every port. It is built for potable-water systems and carries an EPDM O-ring on each end for a watertight seal. A centre stop dimple keeps tube insertion depth consistent during assembly. The fitting is supplied new and ready for professional installation.

Rated for 200 psi sustained pressure

The fitting handles a maximum operating pressure of 200 psi in continuous service, not just in short bursts. Its all-copper body and press-fit joints maintain integrity under prolonged load without the thermal cycling risks of soldered joints. The EPDM seals resist degradation from treated water over long periods. This makes it suitable for mains-pressure distribution that runs continuously.

Replaces soldered copper tees on 2-1/2 in mains

Use this press tee when you need to eliminate open flame, flux and solder on large-diameter potable lines. The jump is worth it on retrofit jobs where burning permits are impractical or where soldering skill is unavailable. It is not for systems that exceed 200 psi or for non-potable fluids that require different seal materials. It also does not suit installations where press-tool access around the fitting is blocked.

Questions about this item

How hot can the water get before the EPDM O-ring on the 918XL tee degrades?

The EPDM O-ring is rated for typical potable water temperatures; sustained exposure above its material limit will reduce seal life.

What press tool and jaw size are required to install the 2-1/2 in connections on this fitting?

A compatible press tool with a 2-1/2 in jaw set designed for Viega ProPress copper fittings is required.

Will the 7 1/32 in overall length of this tee match the centre-to-centre spacing of my existing 2-1/2 in copper runs?

Measure the installed centre-to-centre distance; the tee's 7 1/32 in length and centre stop dimple determine the final spacing.
